Parts of Greenland were deprived on Monday evening of phone, SMS and internet connections, possibly linked to a massive power outage on the Iberian Peninsula, the operator said.
“Right now there is no contact with our equipment in Maspalomas in Spain, which we rely on to supply customers in the satellite area,” operator Tusass said at around 9:00 pm (2200 GMT on Monday).
“We are investigating whether there is a connection between the major power outage that Spain is/has been hit by,” it said.
By Tuesday morning, electricity had been restored to most of Spain and Portugal.
The affected areas on Greenland were located in the north and south of the vast Arctic territory.
