In parts of Frankfurt the power is currently out! The reason for this is a fire in a substation in Höchst. According to current knowledge, the districts of Höchst, Nied, Unterliederbach, Zeilsheim and Sindlingen are affected and thus more than 100,000 people. It is not possible to say at this time how long the power outage will last. The operator, Süwag Energie, is assessing the damage situation. The Frankfurt Fire Department is determining which critical infrastructure facilities, such as hospitals, nursing homes and others, are located in the affected area and is preparing necessary measures.
Residents in the affected neighborhoods are urged to keep up with developments - on local radio or using the fire department's Twitter channelhttp://twitter.com/feuerwehrffm and the website https://www.feuerwehr-frankfurt.de .
As soon as something changes in the development, the new state of affairs will be announced. Please dial the emergency number 112 only if there is acute danger to life and limb.
