The stench of a cover-up hangs over Spain’s giant blackout, the worst electricity failure in any developed country in modern times. Faith in the current investigation has reached rock-bottom.

Claims have been aired - and denied - that there was a lack of inertia in the grid just before the blackout, causing the frequency to fall below 50 hertz. Gas and nuclear plants retain kinetic energy from spinning rotors for a few seconds after losing power, which provides a critical buffer. Wind and solar do not. But this has been known for a long time. Modern systems replicate the inertia through other means, such as "grid-forming" inverters at wind and solar plants.

There is no coherent case for what Sir Keir Starmer has just agreed with Brussels.
