No obstacle will stop our crews! One team in North Kingstown ran into a challenge when they couldn’t reach a pole because of massive snow drifts. So they did what they do best: they climbed. We’re almost there, and we thank everyone for their patience!

Restoring our customers after Storm Hernando took long nights, tough climbs, and incredible teamwork. We’re also grateful for first responders, plow drivers, community partners, the RI National Guard, and crews who traveled from out of state to help Rhode Island.

High winds caused a tree to come into contact with power lines. Thanks to the Portsmouth Fire Department for coordinating with us to extinguish the fire, so we could repair the line. This is a powerful reminder of why staying clear of downed wires and storm damage is critical.
