    Power outages in North America: questions and answers

    Is there a live map of power outages in North America?

    Yes. powercut.io shows current power outages in the United States and Canada on one map, from the outage feeds that 24 utilities publish themselves. It updates every ten minutes and is free to use without an account.

    Which utilities are on the map?

    United States: Oncor, Dominion Energy, Georgia Power, Alabama Power, Ameren, AEP Ohio, PSE&G, Evergy, FirstEnergy Ohio, Con Edison, Eversource, Pacific Gas and Electric, Southern California Edison, Entergy Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Orleans and Texas, Xcel Energy, Florida Power & Light and ODIN. Canada: Hydro-Québec, Hydro One, Toronto Hydro, BC Hydro, FortisAlberta, EPCOR Distribution & Transmission and Nova Scotia Power. Each country page lists them with links to their own outage maps.

    How many people are without power in North America right now?

    42,454 customers were without power from 479 unplanned outages at 09:00 UTC. The real number is higher: not every company publishes its outages, and some do not say how many customers are affected.

    Where do I report a power outage?

    To the company that owns the power lines in your area, which may not be the one you pay for electricity. Every country and town page on powercut lists them and links to their outage pages. Stay away from fallen power lines, and if anyone is in danger, call your local emergency number.

    Can I get a notification when the power goes out near me?

    Yes. On the alerts page you choose a place and a radius, and powercut sends a notification to your phone or computer when a new outage is reported inside it, and again when the power is back. More
