But for National Grid, the joke was a reminder that the worst blackout since 2003 came as it faces uncomfortable questions about its monopoly in running a fast-changing electricity system that is moving towards cleaner-burning fuels. 

The opposition Labour party has called for the company, which was privatised almost 30 years ago, to be brought back under state control.

Memo to investors: move on.

I provided a solution to this problem some days ago. This is not rocket science.
