During a power outage, Cobb EMC’s priority is restoring power as safely and quickly as possible. We understand that providing you with the information you need about your outage is important as well. That’s why we have launched a new and interactive Outage Map where you can find real-time information about your outage, an estimated time of restoration, an outage status, an outage cause, and more.  

The new outage map features real-time information to keep you informed during an outage: 

  • Summary of active outages
  • Summary of total members affected
  • Estimated time of restoration
  • Outage status
  • Outage cause
  • Time the outage began
  • Option to view the map in Spanish
  • Virtual assistant to report outages and check outage status

Shaded areas in the shape of polygons around individual outage icons represent the areas that are impacted by a particular outage.
