Information on the Continental Europe Synchronous Area
On Friday, 8^th January 2021 the synchronous area of Continental Europe was split into two separated grid regions for more than an hour. Frequency deviation was registered in the power system of BiH and in neighbouring systems. The separation occurred at 14h 04 CET over control areas of Romania, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia and at 15h 08 CET it was reconnected. The separation was caused by cascading outages of transmission lines in the South East Europe. In BiH these lines had outages: 220 kV Prijedor 2 – TPP Sisak and Prijedor 2 – Međurić. In a newly formed synchronous area of the South-East Europe frequency increased up to 50,61Hz which was a direct consequence of more generation power than the load power at that time.
