Big energy savings are coming to First Lutheran Church in Poulsbo. 💡 PSE helped the church upgrade to heat pump water heaters and energy-efficient lighting fixtures through our Small Business Direct Install program. They expect to save more than 68,000 kWh annually!

As we work to safely restore power, please remember: - Never touch or go within 35 feet of a downed power line. Assume all downed wires are energized. Call PSE at 1-888-225-5773 or 911 to report them. - Use flashlights instead of candles.

- Never operate a generator indoors or in enclosed spaces. - Never use a natural gas range or charcoal grill for heating indoors. - Be aware of dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning. We will continue providing updates as crews complete damage assessments & restoration progresses.

The outage pictured has been restored and I-5 has reopened. As crews work on restoration throughout the area, please be on the lookout for downed trees and lines. If you come across a downed line, stay at least 35 feet away and report it to PSE or by calling 911.

Wind and rain are expected Friday as an unseasonably strong weather system moves through the region. With trees and vegetation still fully leafed out, winds may bring branches and trees into power lines, potentially causing outages.
