What is the average timeline for getting power restored after an outage?

The average timeline for power restoration after an outage varies depending on the nature and severity of the outage. At Portland General Electric Company, our dedicated team works tirelessly to restore power as quickly and safely as possible. For smaller, localized outages, restoration typically occurs within a few hours to a day. However, during more significant events such as storms or major system disruptions, restoration can take longer, ranging from a few days to several weeks. Our skilled technicians prioritize critical infrastructure and densely populated areas to ensure efficient recovery. We understand the inconvenience of power outages and strive to communicate updates promptly through various channels, including our website and social media platforms. Rest assured, PGE is committed to minimizing disruptions and restoring power swiftly to our valued customers.
