Did you know you can sign up for additional notifications if Pacific Power may need to shut off power during extreme wildfire conditions?

If you or someone in your household relies on electricity for a medical device or has an access or functional need, you can sign up to receive additional notifications before and during a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS).

You can also enroll in Pacific Power’s Medical Certificate Program or self-identify as having an access or functional need. Some customers may qualify for backup power rebates or free batteries.

⚡ Don’t wait until the power is out!
