In Albania, blackouts have been reported in Tirana, Durrësi, Lezha, Shkodra, Kukësi, Saranda and Elbasani.
The lights in the country’s constitutional court have also gone off, according to BalkanWeb.
Power company OSHEE announced last night the power could be switched off in Tirana, the Albanian capital.
Power outages are occurring across Banja Luka, Prnjavor, Kotor Varoš, Sarajevo, Derventa, Palam, Trebinje, Gack and Nevesinje in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bosnian TV channel BN reported.
Electricity flows were interrupted a little after 12pm.
Southern Croatia suffered a massive power outage at around 12.30pm local time, with the entirety of Dubrovnik and Konavle blacked out.
The country’s national power grid, HEP, said the outage was down to ‘an international disturbance that affected several countries’.
‘The Croatian transmission system operator is conducting an analysis with the system operators of neighbouring countries to determine the cause,’ it added.
Montenegro’s energy network has also confirmed power outages in the country.
It said there was an outage on the network of the Montenegrin Electric Transmission System (CGES).
