entergy louisiana restoration evening update – sept. 11

09/11/2020

another restoration milestone was reached in louisiana today with the re-energization of the second of nine high-voltage lines feeding power into the lake charles area. this critical 500kv source will help restore the reliability of our system following the unprecedented damage from hurricane laura.

rebuilding the damage to this line allows additional substations to be reenergized, paving the way to restore power to more customers. in order to repair this line, crews replaced eleven 500kv structures that were destroyed by the storm. by friday morning, crews have replaced more than 13% of the damaged structures and restored more than 34% of damaged substations.

as of friday evening approximately 27,000 customers have been restored with 66,000 remaining without power in calcasieu and cameron parishes.

restoration for customers in southwest louisiana will be a slow, methodical and controlled process. entergy louisiana is committed to repairing and rebuilding the electric system until every customer who was impacted by the storm has power available to them. as work is completed, we will continue to evaluate restoration time frames for customers.
