October Windstorm

We understand the stress and disruption that power outages can cause, and we appreciate your patience as we work to restore power as quickly and safely as possible.

Crews have made excellent progress, and we expect all remaining customers to have power restored today. Crews will continue to work around the clock until power is restored to all customers.

We are also watching the weather forecast and the potential for winds this afternoon and tonight in western Whatcom County and the Cascade Foothills. High winds could increase the number of outages or might delay current restoration efforts if conditions are not safe for our crews to continue to work for a period of time.

Wind power

Leading the way in cleaner, renewable energy

PSE is undergoing the most significant transformation in our history as we strive to meet Washington state’s cleaner energy laws—some of the most ambitious in the nation. Wind power is an important part of that journey.

Across the Pacific Northwest, we currently own four large wind farms and have power purchase agreements (PPAs) with five facilities that are either operational or in development.

Together, these facilities will generate more than 2,800 MW of renewable energy and help PSE create a cleaner energy future for all.
