hurricane delta
october 11, 2020 sunday, 3:30 pm update
as of 3:30pm, entergy texas has 50,204 customers currently without power, which is down from 108,891 at the peak of the storm. the remaining outages are primarily concentrated in the beaumont, orange, and port arthur areas. entergy texas has restored power to approximately 58,000 customers. currently, entergy texas has over 2,000 resources currently engaged in the restoration effort.
crews are encountering areas with significant damage across the region. as we work to restore customers, we focus on the cases that allow us to get the most customers back on soonest, and then work our way to the smaller cases. as crews narrow in on the hardest hit areas, they will begin handling those smaller cases that are tied to fewer customers.
our high voltage transmission line damage assessments are 100 percent complete and assessments indicate minimal transmission damage, which will allow for facilities to be restored much more quickly than in hurricane laura. crews will be repairing portions of our 69kv and 230kv lines to continue support of the dual source ties on our system.
based on our initial damage assessments, entergy texas expects to restore most customers in the beaumont, orange and port arthur areas by wednesday, oct 14. there may be some customers in especially hard-hit areas that will be restored by friday, oct 16.
