Centrica did a survey of 301 businesses and found that 81% had suffered at least one power failure in the past 12 months.

I don’t know about the 46% but this would not be a surprise given the disruptions that businesses in the South East have been suffering.

Why have I not heard of this before? Where does this nonsense come from and why is it being printed in a seemingly reliable media outlet?
