Missouri: official power outage sources

If your power is out

1. Stay away from downed lines and anything touching them. Call 911.
2. Report it to your own utility. The name and outage phone number are on your electric bill. Do not assume a neighbor has reported it.
3. Check your utility's outage page for the area affected and any restoration estimate. Only your utility can give that estimate.

Good to know in Missouri

• Cooperative and city utility customers should check with their own provider; Ameren's, Evergy's and Liberty's maps do not cover them.
• Springfield City Utilities hides individual outages from its public map; a "Repairs Needed" count of zero does not mean everyone has power.
• Some cooperatives based in Arkansas and Iowa serve parts of Missouri.

The wider grid

Regional grid organizations and balancing areas that cover all or part of Missouri: MISO; SPP; Associated Electric Cooperative; Southwestern Power Administration. They balance supply and demand on the high-voltage system. Their alerts describe the regional system, not an outage on your street. How the pieces fit together
