We received following information from researcher Jussi Palola / Helsinki Energy:

The load of Salmisaari substation decreased 2 MVA on 29 February 2008 between 7-8 pm. The normal value for decrease during this time is 1,2 MVA, so the effect of the UNPLUG event is approximately 800 kVA.

The making of Nuage Vert project will be presented in Pixelache Lounge exhibition, and Helen Evans will be talking about the project in Pixelache University seminar on Friday 14 March.
