Tools You Can Use  

A Strong Response Network  
When severe weather strikes, Georgia Power has access to additional resources available as part of the Southern Company system, which includes multiple electric and gas companies serving more than 9 million customers nationwide. Additionally, Georgia Power is part of a national mutual assistance network consisting of dozens of utilities from around the country, and the company is able to tap into reinforcements when needed to restore power to Georgia customers following a storm. In September, Georgia Power responded to Hurricane Irma, one of the most destructive storms in the company's history which interrupted service to nearly 1 million customers. With more than 8,000 personnel involved in restoration efforts, Georgia Power restored power to impacted customers well ahead of schedule.
