Is The Power Out?

For utilities, cities and local business

Is The Power Out? is free for every resident in Tri-Cities, WA and always will be. There are a few ways your organization can plug in, most of them free too.

Utilities and cities: claim the operator console

If you run a Tri-Cities utility or a city department, you can claim a free operator console for your service area. Confirm an outage, post a restoration estimate, set crew status, and push a plain-language update that residents see the moment they check the map. No contract, no cost. It turns the crowd report into a two-way channel and takes pressure off your phone line.

Claim your console

Put live outage status on your site

A city page, a newsroom, or a business that wants to keep customers informed: embed the live status in one line of HTML. Free to use, just keep the small credit.

Sponsor a month

Local business wanting to help keep this running? Sponsor a month. It shows up as a quiet “supported by” line in the footer, nothing flashy, nothing on the map. A simple way to put your name in front of a lot of neighbors at the exact moment they need a local hand.
