Historical outage patterns in Louisiana

Federal outage records (EAGLE-I, kept by the U.S. Department of Energy) contain 42,956 parish-level outage records (200+ customers at peak) in Louisiana between 2014 and 2025 for the 63 parishes the federal record covers — 381 of them major events of 10,000+ customers. Half were restored within about 3.5 hr, and parish-level outages here have been most common in summer (33% of all records). The busiest year on record was 2022.
Largest single-parish outage on record: ~204,888 customers out in Jefferson Parish in August 2021, restored after about 13.6 days.
Months that hit the widest area at once — these rank among the three largest outages ever recorded in the most parishes: August 2020 (33 parishes), October 2020 (31 parishes), August 2021 (20 parishes).
Where restoration has historically taken longest: East Baton Rouge Parish (~9.5 hr typical), Jefferson Parish (~7.8 hr typical), Caddo Parish (~7.5 hr typical) — against ~3.5 hr statewide.

Statewide figures aggregate the same per-parish records shown on each parish page below; the statewide restoration figure is the typical (middle) value across the per-parish typical times, weighted by how many records each parish has. A parish appears in a “widest area” month when that month produced one of its three largest recorded outages.

Common questions

How do I check power outages in Louisiana?

This page lists live outage status for every parish in Louisiana, updated about every 15 minutes from the federal government's public county outage data (ODIN) and National Weather Service alerts, combined with utilities' own live data where we track them. Open any parish for its restoration outlook, or search your ZIP or address for the most specific view.

Which utilities serve Louisiana?

Electric utilities we track in Louisiana include Entergy (LA/MS/AR/TX), SWEPCO (AEP), Beauregard Electric Cooperative (LA), CLECO Power (LA) and others. Each restores its own service area — report an outage to your serving utility so crews can be dispatched.

When will power be restored in Louisiana?

Restoration depends on the cause and scale of each outage, so it varies by parish and utility. For each affected area with enough trend data we publish an independent restoration estimate — from the live outage count, the recovery rate, and weather — shown even before the utility posts an official time; very small or brand-new outages say so instead of guessing. Open an area above for its outlook.

How accurate are the estimates?

Every estimate is later graded against when the tracked outage was substantially restored (~90% of customers back), and the track record is published on our accuracy page. Statewide totals combine the federal county-by-county tally with utilities' own live outage data, so this page and the live map always show the same numbers.
