Today the ministry said that they have ruled out a hacking of the REE, 
but not in other places. And that it originated in Granada, Badajoz and 
Sevilla (loss of generation).

Spanish:

<https://www.eldiario.es/economia/aagesen-avanza-desconexiones-generacion-apagon-empezaron-granada-badajoz-sevilla_1_12297171.html>

  Aagesen says that the generation disconnections before the blackout 
began in Granada, Badajoz and Seville.

     They began with a substation in Granada and then occurred in 
Badajoz and Seville; the vice-president speaks of ‘overvoltage’ 
problems, rules out a cyber-attack on Red Eléctrica and stresses that 
‘hypotheses have already been ruled out’: it was not a problem of 
coverage, reserve ‘or the size of the networks’.

The Third Vice-President and Minister for Ecological Transition, Sara 
Aagesen, announced this Wednesday in the Congress of Deputies that the 
generation losses prior to the historic blackout on 28 April ‘began in 
Granada, Badajoz and Seville’. Aagesen, who confirmed that a 
cyber-attack on Red Eléctrica has been ruled out, spoke of problems of 
‘overvoltage’ in the system and explained that they are analysing 
whether the oscillations detected in Europe half an hour before the cut 
were related to the incident.

In an appearance in the plenary session to explain the crisis, the 
vice-president explained that, after ‘at least two periods of 
oscillations’ in the 30 minutes prior to the blackout, which were 
detected in the peninsular and European system, with “low” demand at 
that time, there were ‘three losses’ of generation: the first, ‘in a 
substation in Granada’ at 12 hours, 32 minutes and 57 seconds; 19 
seconds later, another substation in Badajoz was disconnected; and 20.3 
seconds later, another in Seville. ‘The sum of these three events’ 
accumulated a loss of just over 2.2 gigawatts ‘in 20 seconds’.

  The committee investigating the blackout is analyzing “disconnections 
that may be due to overvoltage as a triggering element of the cascading 
drop” that came just after. The control systems of the different 
operators reflect that that morning “recorded volatility in the 
voltages”, previous: “Rises and falls” prior to that zero and those 
oscillations. That is why they are analyzing “not only that morning”, 
but also the days prior to the blackout.

Aagesen explained that after these disconnections in these three 
provinces, the synchronism with the European system was lost: the 
interconnections with France jump, the Iberian Peninsula is isolated 
from the rest of the continent and the “deregulation” occurs, that is, 
the demand ceases to be fed. After disconnecting “the first step of 
deregulation”, the frequency in the grid “continues to drop” and 
“successive steps of deregulation” are activated in a short period of 
time. At 12 hours, 33 minutes and 22 seconds “the sixth time step of 
dredging” is activated and the system ends up collapsing to “peninsular 
zero”.

The Vice-president explained that the inter-ministerial committee that 
is analyzing the causes of the incident, which has already held six 
meetings and has a group dedicated to the electricity system and another 
for cybersecurity, is analyzing “millions of data with the best 
equipment on behalf of the Administration”. He stated that the 
collaboration of the sector's agents is being “full”. Information has 
been requested from more than thirty generation control centers, 
distributors and aggregations of large generation productions above 
1,000 megawatts.
