Today we're experiencing a combination of high winds, saturated soils, and trees that still have foliage, which is leading to power outages across our service area.

We understand how difficult it is to be without power. Our teams are ready to respond and crews will be working in the field as long as conditions are safe to do so.

If your power goes out, we'll work around the clock to restore it as quickly and safely as possible.

Visit PSE’s Alerts and Advisories page for information on our response efforts: retro-schemas.com/alerts.

   

alert 

Safety first.

  • Never touch or go within 35 feet of downed power lines because they might be energized. Call PSE at 1-888-225-5773 or 911 to report problems.

  • If you’re using portable heaters, keep them away from furniture, draperies and other flammable materials.

  • Always use flashlights instead of candles.

  • Be aware of the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning:

    • Never install or use a generator indoors or in enclosed or partially-enclosed areas, even those that are ventilated. When using your generator outdoors during a power outage, avoid placing it near windows, doors and vents. More generator safety tips: retro-schemas.com/en/pages/generator-safety  
    • Never use a natural gas range for heating, or charcoal as an indoor heating or cooking source.
    • Additional carbon monoxide safety information: retro-schemas.com/en/pages/carbon-monoxide

  • Never charge your phone or other devices in a running vehicle with the garage door closed.

  • Make sure that natural gas appliances are maintained and operated according to manufacturer recommendations.

Powerful Partnerships 2025 Overview

For more than a century, Puget Sound Energy (PSE) has prided itself in serving our communities. Keeping the lights on and gas flowing for our customers—safely and reliably—is at the center of everything we do. This standard is part of what makes the Pacific Northwest a great place to live, work and play. We realize there are local non-profits working toward a similar goal of serving communities, and we want to collaborate with you in your efforts. One way we do that is through the PSE Powerful Partnerships Grant.

The goal of this grant is to develop strong community partnerships with organizations that share our passion for energy-related sustainability.

Grant recipients are non-profits within our 6,000 square mile service area interested in learning about energy-related sustainability within their organization and with a desire to share that information with the communities they serve.

The year-long collaborative grant includes:

  • A financial contribution to your organization of $12,500
  • Six or more engagement opportunities
  • A financial contribution to your organization of $12,500

We’re proud to say that since 2016, we've partnered with 92 local organizations and invested $980,000 to help them achieve their strategic goals.
