With winter in full effect, now is the time to prepare for inclement weather. While we work
hard year-round to keep the lights on, sometimes Mother Nature curves a snow ball in our direction
that can knock out power for a period of time.
When the lights go out, our
crews restore power safely and as quickly as possible.

At
the same time, we know you want details about your outage so you can make more informed
decisions for your family or business.
That's why we launched a free outage map application for smart phones more than one year
ago. And, just recently, we optimized our app for iPad users.
LG&E and KU were among the first
utilities in the nation (and the first in Kentucky) to offer a free outage map app that displays near
real-time outage information.
The
app shows the location and number of outages in our service territory, a summary of outages by
county and zip code, outage cause and estimated restoration time (if known).
You can also zoom in to see your outage and the area affected by it. In addition, when our
crews input facts about an outage from the field, our outage map is also updated, so you
have the latest information.
How to download:Our free outage map app is available for download on
iPhone/iPad,
Android and
Blackberry
devices. You can also search for "LG&E and KU Outage Maps" within the App stores of each
device.
Until next time, stay safe, and keep using energy wisely.
