Disaster Response and Mutual Aid

When storms and other large-scale events cause entire communities to black out, public power utility employees are out working hard to restore and repair the system, and help communities rebound.

American Public Power Association members can access disaster planning and response resources — including the public power Mutual Aid Network.
