We’re here to help

We hope we don’t have to call a Public Safety Power Shutoff this fire season, but if we do, we’ll set up a mobile Community Resource Center to provide some relief. Learn more in this video.

Report an outage and get updates

If you're a residential or small business customer, we'll text you if your power goes out, so you shouldn't need to report it. But if you don't get a text, you can still report outages. Just download our mobile app, report online or call:

• 503-464-7777 • 800-544-1795
