Power appears to have returned to Heathrow airport but it remains closed after an outage caused by a fire.
National Grid said an “interim solution” has been found to allow power to be restored to the west London airport.
PA news agency reporters inside Terminal 4 on Friday afternoon said lights in the main building have switched back on and lifts in the multi-storey car park are operational again.
The airport announced early on Friday it would be closed until 11.59pm because of a fire at a nearby electrical substation.
Around 200,000 passengers have been affected by the closure of what is Europe’s busiest airport.
Online flight tracking service Flightradar24 said more than 1,350 flights were scheduled to take off or land at the airport on Friday.
