Common questions

How do I check power outages in Quebec?

This page shows live outage status for Quebec, refreshed about every 15 minutes from Hydro-Québec's own public outage map.

Which utility serves Quebec?

Hydro-Québec is the main electricity provider we track in Quebec. Report an outage or downed line directly to Hydro-Québec so crews can be dispatched — this is an independent tracker, not the utility.
