A large number of customers have suffered from power outages during the night and morning. Among the affected areas are Ekerö and Hässelby beach. The power may come and go while the fault is fixed.
– There are quite complex problems on Ekerö. Fallen trees have cut three ropes that we need to repair, says Jesper Liveröd press manager at Ellevio.
The stormy weather has also delayed the repairs.
– We could not send our repairmen out directly into the storm, due to the security situation. But they got started in the early morning, says Jesper Liveröd.
The harsh weather created problems in several parts of the country. Both in Värmland and in Vallentuna, a few thousand customers were without electricity. Those problems are now fixed. At the same time, work continues west of Stockholm.
– It’s a bit complex, but we work in parallel with switching, so that people get electricity from other lines. The forecast is that the problems will be fixed by 11 o’clock, hopefully earlier, says Jesper Liveröd.

Hello! Is there any survey that shows the distrust we voters have for this government? I think of all the lies and broken election promises, for example. electricity support, school, care and welfare, etc. If the government thinks that we voters will forget and that it will blow over, they are wrong. We see a weak government that takes from the poor and gives to the rich and allows industries to do the same. Shame on you!
Veronica
Hi Veronica! We do not have a survey that specifically measures mistrust, but on the other hand, both our Demoscope surveys and other opinion polls show that support for the Tidö parties (the government + SD) decreased after the election. Many assessors have brought up the electricity subsidy as one of the explanations for this. Here you can read the latest survey with an analysis by Lena Mellin.
Hello
Why doesn’t Afonbladet write anything about the political turmoil and ABF in Botkyrka? Many other news media have it up on their features.
GM
Hey GM! Aftonbladet was actually the first to report on the matter and we have written a series of articles on the subject. Last but not least yesterday, we were on site in Botkyrka when S held a crisis meeting.
Why is it so important to write about how many people died in the earthquake? Is it to understand the breadth? Now it seems most likely that there will be a “record breaking” in deaths. Doesn’t feel quite right.
Kerstin Franzén
Huh… the only thing you want is for the death toll to be as low as possible, right?
But they are what they are, and we report them. Very relevant information to give an idea of the scale of this disaster.
