Most places in the world that are slightly more exposed to weather than average run the risk of power outages. That'll be anywhere from Norway to Texas to Australia. In other parts of the world blackouts may be enriched by lack of grid capacity or incompetence.

Heavily depends on how exposed the infrastructure is, I'd say. I currently live in Spain and been experiencing way more power outages than in Sweden, where I was born and raised, even though the weather is much more extreme in Sweden. Main difference, as far as I can tell, is that Sweden mostly digs trenches for all sorts of cables and infrastructure, while Spain tends to (still) hang cables in the air and on the outside of walls. I still get my fiber from a cable that comes hanging down from the front-side balcony of my flat here in Barcelona, and that's the official installation from my ISP.
I had the same experience when I lived in Germany back in the 80/90s. All the infrastructure was underground so the only time we had a power outage was when someone was digging and hit the line. I always bring this up now days living in Georgia where a strong wind can knock out power for a few hours.
