Rida Mulyana, director general of electricity at the energy ministry, said 21 million customers were affected by the outage. By midday on Monday, PLN said a number of power plants had been restarted and 23 substations were operating. It did not say how many households and businesses were still without power.PLN spokesman I Made Suprateka told Metro TV on Monday that overgrown trees had made contact with a high-voltage power line and started a fire that triggered the transmission failure.
