Brazil on Friday restored power to eight states in the northeast of the country hit by a blackout on Thursday that highlighted the growing strain on the country's electricity grid. Infrastructure bottlenecks, including limited airport capacity and lack of adequate road networks, have become an increasing concern as Brazil's economy grows rapidly and the country prepares to host the 2014 World Cup soccer championship and the 2016 Olympics.
