中新社雅加达5月23日电 (记者 李志全)印度尼西亚苏门答腊岛22日晚间发生大规模停电事故，数百万居民陷入断电状态，多个省份交通及公共活动受到影响。
印尼国家电力公司证实，当地时间22日18时44分左右，苏门答腊互联电网发生故障，导致亚齐省、北苏门答腊省、西苏门答腊省、廖内省以及苏门答腊中部部分地区大面积停电。其中，该公司在北苏门答腊、廖内、西苏门答腊和亚齐分别拥有约440万、260万、196万和170万用户。
初步调查显示，事故与一条275千伏输电线路故障有关，恶劣天气被认为是导致故障的重要原因。
截至23日7时，此次事故已造成540条供电线路受损，其中173条已恢复运行。印尼国家电力公司表示，已派出数百名技术人员开展抢修，并对输电系统进行全面检查。
停电导致苏门答腊多地交通秩序受到影响。多地主要城市因交通信号灯停止运作，晚高峰期间多条道路出现严重拥堵。部分商户因停电提前结束营业，不少居民则依靠蜡烛和手机灯光照明。
居住在北苏门答腊省的民众告诉中新社记者，22日晚间停电期间恰逢降雨，首府棉兰除少数区域仍有亮光外，大部分地区“一片漆黑”。一些高校和医院依靠发电机维持运行。当地民众还告诉记者，停电导致网络信号不稳，与记者通话时断时续。截至记者发稿时，棉兰供电情况仍未全面恢复。
苏门答腊岛人口逾5800万，是印尼重点发展的六大经济走廊之一。(完)
