Arkansas: official power outage sources
Entergy Arkansas is the largest utility in Arkansas. Other homes get power from SWEPCO, OG&E or Liberty, from one of 17 electric cooperatives, or from about 15 city utilities such as Conway, North Little Rock, Paragould and Siloam Springs. The Arkansas Public Service Commission oversees the investor-owned utilities and the cooperatives; city utilities are run locally.
