Residents in several Zagreb neighborhoods faced significant disruptions on July 2, 2026, due to power outages caused by both equipment malfunctions and planned maintenance. The most widespread outage affected larger portions of Remetinec and Savski Gaj, stemming from a fault at a local substation. Electricity was cut early in the morning, with repair crews working to restore power by 2 p.m.

In addition to the unexpected fault, scheduled maintenance on the city's power grid also led to planned blackouts. A section of the Miroลกevec settlement in Gornja Dubrava was without electricity until 4 p.m., impacting households along Miroลกeveฤka cesta and adjacent streets. Another area experienced a shorter outage, with power expected to return by 2:30 p.m. in parts of Ulica Republike Austrije, Trg Vladka Maฤeka, and Prilaz Gjure Hegeduลกiฤ‡a.
