Where this data comes from

Numbers on this page come from RG&E's public outage data — the same data behind its official outage map — collected on a rotating cycle (each utility typically refreshes within the hour; the card above shows exactly when these numbers were last collected). This utility's website blocks our main data collector, so we gather its numbers a different way — they refresh on a ~30-minute cycle here. When the utility posts a restoration time we show it as the official estimate; our independent estimate is computed from the outage's own recovery trend and graded publicly. Coverage and level of detail vary by utility: some break out towns and neighborhoods, others publish only county or area totals.

Common questions

How do I report a power outage to RG&E?

Report outages and downed lines directly to RG&E or its outage phone line — crews are dispatched from customer reports. This page is an independent tracker, not affiliated with RG&E; never rely on it for emergencies. In a life-threatening situation, call 911.

Does RG&E give an estimated restoration time?

When RG&E posts an estimated restoration time for an outage, we show it as the official estimate. Alongside it we show our own independent estimate from the outage's live recovery trend — useful when the utility hasn't posted a time yet. Both appear side by side.

Why isn't my outage showing for RG&E?

A brand-new or single-customer outage may not appear in the utility's public data yet, and the level of detail varies — some RG&E data breaks out towns and neighborhoods, other sources publish county or area totals only. If your power is out and it isn't listed, report it to RG&E so it enters their system.

How accurate is the RG&E restoration estimate?

Our independent estimates are graded against when the tracked outage was substantially restored (~90% of customers back), published on our accuracy page. RG&E's own posted restoration times are graded there too, so you can compare them.
