The Final Report on the Blackout is now out.
The causes were found to include:
Failure to maintain adequate reactive power support
Failure to ensure operation within secure limits
Inadequate vegetation management
Inadequate operator training
Failure to identify emergency conditions and communicate that status to neighboring systems
Inadequate regional-scale visibility over the bulk power system.
They also come up with 46 recommendations. Let's hope we see some action on these.
