    There is a power outage on the whole of Bornholm this Monday morning, and department manager Ole Westh from Trefor El-net Øst states that there is a break in the submarine cable to Sweden.

    Bornholms Energi og Forsyning, BEOF, is about to start electricity production at the power plant at Rønne Havn.

    The power outage occurred approximately ten minutes after eight, and the entire island is covered, says Trefor, which is responsible for distributing electricity on Bornholm.

    – We are currently waiting for BEOF to start up the plant so that we can start supplying the island with electricity, says Ole Westh to DR Nyheder.

    According to Ole Westh, it is not yet known whether the break in the submarine cable is on land or in the sea between Sweden and Bornholm.

    The message at 8.35 is that Trefor expects to have the power back around 9.50. Parts of Rønne have received power again
