fiit. Emergency crews worked through the night to stabilize the system and activate backup generators. By early Sunday morning, electricity had been restored to most areas, though officials said full normalization of services would take additional time. Residents were urged to conserve power while repairs continued. No injuries were reported, but the incident highlighted the vulnerability of infrastructure in Greenland’s harsh Arctic climate, where extreme weather can quickly disrupt essential services. Authorities said the situation was brought under control as wind conditions eased. The outage came shortly after Greenland’s government issued updated emergency preparedness guidance, advising residents to maintain basic supplies such as food, water, and warm clothing for several days in case of infrastructure failures. The incident also unfolded against a backdrop of easing geopolitical tensions involving the United States, following recent diplomatic signals indicating a cooling of rhetoric over Greenland’s strategic importance. While officials stressed the power outage was weather-related, the timing underscored growing attention on the territory’s resilience amid both environmental and geopolitical pressures. Utility officials said further assessments are underway to prevent similar disruptions in the future, as climate-driven extreme weather events become more frequent in the Arctic region.
