NES crews are working nonstop to restore power for everyone!

Our safe Estimated Time of Restoration (ETR) is 9 a.m. June 10, but many customers will see their lights come back on sooner.

This ETR applies to all NES customers who are able to receive power. Restoration times depend on the number of damaged poles and downed wires, as well as the complexity of repairs. Weather, hidden damage, and even traffic can impact these timelines. Sometimes temporary outages are necessary so crews can safely restore service to neighboring areas.

We prioritize repairs that help the most customers and critical facilities, such as hospitals, fire stations, and water treatment plants.

Every NES customer matters, and our team won’t stop until everyone’s power is restored. Thank you for your patience and support!
