On Saturday, more than 250,000 passengers passed through the airport \u201cwith punctual departures,\u201d the airport said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The fire, which the authorities believe was likely accidental, raises questions about the resilience of Britain\u2019s key infrastructure and whether the country has invested enough to maintain it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Britain\u2019s government has faced pressure for years to maintain and modernize the country\u2019s transportation infrastructure, like roads and trains. But the country faces severe financial pressures, with public services like health care underfunded. Any demands for major infrastructure spending would create political headaches for the prime minister, Keir Starmer, while he also tries to increase military spending amid flatlining economic growth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Within hours of the airport going dark, engineering experts were questioning whether Heathrow was supported by infrastructure befitting a major world hub.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Martin Kuball, a professor of physics at the University of Bristol, wrote in an online post that the fire was a warning sign about the nation\u2019s electrical systems.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cUnfortunately, there is no resilience built into the National Grid,\u201d Mr. Kuball, a Royal Academy of Engineering chair in emerging technologies, wrote at the Science Media Center. \u201cIn part, this is because we still rely on old technology in substations that use copper windings to distribute power rather than new technology, so-called solid state transformers.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The British authorities said they expected preliminary results from the investigation in six weeks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a statement, the transport secretary, Heidi Alexander, said that Heathrow \u201cuses the energy of a small city, so it\u2019s imperative we identify how this power failure happened and learn from this to ensure a vital piece of national infrastructure remains strong.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async
