- Storm Restoration
Latest Update: Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) has essentially completed the restoration for customers affected by Hurricane Milton. While this means that most customers now have their lights back on, it’s important to note that some customers in the hardest-hit areas—those impacted by storm surges, flooding, and tornadoes—are unable to receive electricity safely. This includes barrier islands in Manatee and Sarasota counties and coastal areas along the east coast that experienced historic tornado activity. FPL will continue working around the clock and collaborate with local leaders to restore power safely and as quickly as possible.
Words from FPL President and CEO Armando Pimentel:
I’m proud of our crews who have restored power to more than two million customers in just five days. Although that means we’ve restored electricity to over 99% of affected customers, we’re also aware that there are still customers without power in some of the most devastated areas. To those customers, know that we won’t stop until everyone has their power back.
Important Note: Some homes and businesses may have sustained damage that prevents them from receiving electricity safely. These customers should contact a licensed electrician to make necessary repairs before FPL can safely restore power. However, if you don’t have power but your neighbors do, please call us at 1-800-4-OUTAGE (1-800-468-8243).
Support Available: Some FPL customers may qualify for financial assistance to help cover costs associated with making their homes safe for electricity through FPL's Care to Share® program. The program is available for customers who need repairs to damaged meter boxes and weather heads. Customers can apply for assistance at FPL.com/help. Those wishing to support hurricane victims can also contribute to the Care to Share® program at FPL.com/help.
Numbers as of the 5 p.m. Report:
- More than 2 million customers already have their power restored, which is over 99% of those affected.
- About 554,000 outages were avoided thanks to smart technology.
- A workforce of 20,000 men and women from 41 states and Canada.
- 25 temporary operation and staging sites.
- 16 customer assistance locations across the state.
Recurrent Outages: Customers in areas where power has been restored may experience outages in the coming days, weeks, and months due to weakened trees and branches that could fall onto power lines and equipment. Salt contamination along the coast, combined with the strong winds from the hurricane, may have loosened electrical connections, potentially causing new outages and flickers after our restoration efforts. FPL will continue working around the clock to address these instances while restoring the system to its pre-storm condition.
