Stroomstoring zet CES Las Vegas 2 uur op zwart 10 januari 2018
De grote technologiebeurs CES is gisteravond voor een groot deel op zwart gegaan. Een stroomstoring heeft de centrale hal effectief uitgeschakeld. Gadgets werden ‘gegijzeld’, innovatie was onzichtbaar, en analoog beleefde een kortstondige renaissance. Today at approximately 11:15 a.m. PT, the Central Hall and South Hall bridge meeting rooms at the Las Vegas Convention Center lost power. Power in the South Hall was restored within minutes, and power has now been fully restored to all areas. A preliminary assessment indicates that condensation from heavy rainfall caused a flashover on one of the facility's transformers. We are grateful to NV Energy for their swift assistance, to our customers and their clients for their patience and to the staff for ensuring the safety and security of all attendees and exhibitors.
