“The power restoration effort is almost over for Kenergy. After initially
assessing the storm damage, we predicted that some customers could remain without power for 3-4 weeks. The majority will be on within three,” says Sandy Novick, Kenergy President and CEO.
“There is still a lot of work to be done. Cleanup after a major storm like this will go on for months. There are approximately 500 poles remaining to be replaced, over 2,500 broken poles and more than 1,800 transformers to be disposed of,” adds Novick.
Currently there are less than 900 Kenergy outages. Many of which are oil wells, campgrounds, barns, and garages. It is important for Kenergy members to notify the cooperative once you have repairs to your weather head and/or meter base complete. Also, if you have any further questions regarding the status of your service, please call 1-800-844-4832 or (270) 926-4141.
Kenergy once again would like to thank their membership for their patience and understanding during this difficult time. The community support has been overwhelming and it is greatly appreciated.
Kenergy is a not-for-profit, member-owned electric distribution cooperative, serving customers in all or portions of 14 western Kentucky counties. The corporate headquarters is in Henderson with service centers being located in Owensboro, Hanson, Hartford, Hawesville and Marion.
