Angri residents protest frequent power outages

Residents and business owners in Angri, Italy, have filed formal complaints with the Prefect, Prosecutor, and ENEL Distribuzione following a series of frequent power outages. The protests, led by Confesercenti Angri President Aldo Severino and building administrator Aniello D’Aniello, follow four sudden electricity interruptions in a single week.

The outages, which occurred during daylight hours and sometimes lasted up to four hours, are reportedly linked to recent excavation work in the Corso Italia area. The disruptions have caused significant issues for residents, including the stalling of elevators in high-rise buildings, which creates accessibility barriers for the elderly and disabled. Local businesses are also facing operational difficulties due to the instability of the power supply.
