As storm recovery continues, we are aware that the Outage Map is not showing some customers who are still without power. Our internal systems for identifying outages and prioritizing restorations are still functioning.

We know it is frustrating for our customers and are working hard to reconcile the outages shown on the map. Please continue to report outages, as needed.

Our crews will continue to work around the clock until the last customer is restored.

November Wind Storm

Over the last 24 hours, more than 150 line crews and 70 tree crews worked throughout the day and night to help over 17,000 customers regain power from storm related outages.

We now have 99% of our customers back online since the bomb cyclone hit Western Washington Tuesday afternoon and will continue to work as fast as we can to restore every customer. Being without power is incredibly disruptive and gets harder as time goes by.

alert 

Safety first. Never touch or go within 35 feet of downed power lines because they might be energized. Call PSE at 1-888-225-5773 or 911 to report problems.

Electricity supply

Puget Sound Energy is the largest energy utility in the state, providing electric power to more than 1.2 million customers. As of December 31, 2022, our electric power resources (company-owned, controlled or under long-term contracts) had a total nameplate capacity of approximately 6,566 megawatts (MW), generating almost 22 million megawatt-hours (MWh) annually.

We’re undergoing the most significant transformation in our history as we strive to meet Washington state’s clean energy laws - some of the most ambitious in the nation - and deliver on our customers’ expectations for energy that is clean as well as safe, reliable and affordable.

Our diversified mix

To ensure system reliability, we maintain a diverse portfolio of generation resources to serve our customers. This includes renewable and non-emitting generation resources including wind, hydroelectric, solar, and battery storage.

In 2022, hydroelectric and wind power accounted for more than 40% of our power generation. Wind power is an important and increasingly prominent resource for PSE. We own and operate three large wind farms in central and eastern Washington with more expected in the future.

In addition to large, utility-scale resources, we are also pursuing energy produced locally and in partnership with our neighborhoods and communities through programs like Community Solar.

We also generate electricity with our own thermal power plants, natural gas and coal, which help balance the variability of renewable resources. We own and operate several natural-gas-fired power plants in the Puget Sound region. By the end of 2025, in accordance with Washington state law, we will no longer serve our customers with coal-fired electricity.
