Entergy Louisiana’s restoration teams continue to make steady progress following this past weekend’s winter storm. Crews have now safely restored power to nearly 65,000 customers, representing about 70% of customers impacted at the peak of the storm.

As of 8 p.m., Entergy restoration teams have safely restored power to 42,000 customers, more than half of the customers who lost service at the peak of the storm.

We know how important electric service is to our customers, especially during the bitter cold brought by the recent winter storm. If you’re without power, we understand how difficult this is, and we’re working as safely and quickly as possible to restore service to everyone who can safely take power. If you do have power, please consider taking steps to reduce electric usage to save money during this period of extreme cold — every little bit helps.
