Hyundai Steel, along with POSCO and other Hyundai Motor Group affiliates, has made a groundbreaking decision to invest $5.8 billion in a new manufacturing facility in Louisiana, and Entergy Louisiana has finalized an electric service agreement with the company’s domestic steelmaking venture, HYUNDAI-POSCO Louisiana Steel (HPLS), to power the site and support its long term energy needs.
Nearly 100,000 truckloads of soil are being delivered and stacked at Entergy’s Waterford 5 & 6 expansion site. To put that into perspective: it’s enough material to cover 100 football fields, each piled 17 feet high.
Resiliency isn’t just about fixing power after a storm. It’s about strengthening the system before storms arrive so communities can recover faster and experience fewer outages.
What if the power grid could tell us how it’s doing — right now, in real time?
That’s the idea behind the new technology Entergy Louisiana will pilot to make electric service safer, stronger and more reliable for customers across the region.
This tax season, Entergy Louisiana will offer its customers free tax preparation and support at upcoming multiple Super Tax Day events throughout Louisiana.
Entergy Louisiana has restored power to all customers who can safely receive it impacted by the recent winter storm that brought prolonged freezing temperatures, heavy ice accumulation and strong winds to North Louisiana. Since the start of the storm, crews safely restored service to close to 130,000 customers, with many requiring restoration multiple times as ongoing ice damage continued to impact the system.
Entergy Louisiana teams have restored power to more than 120,000 customers impacted by the winter weather that brought snow, ice and below freezing temperatures to North Louisiana. As of 11 a.m., approximately 2,500 customers in the hardest-hit areas of Louisiana are still without power. Our crews will continue working to restore service until the last light is on.
Most customers impacted by the winter weather that brought snow, ice and below freezing temperatures to North Louisiana have been restored. As of 12:00 p.m., approximately 6,000 customers in the hardest-hit areas of Louisiana are without power. Our crews will continue working to restore service until the last light is on.
Entergy Louisiana crews have restored power to 90% of customers impacted at the peak of the recent winter storm, marking a major milestone in a challenging and complex restoration effort across north Louisiana.
