Check Georgia Power Online Map for Outage Info in Duluth

The utility has a method to check on and report power failures.

The nasty weather already has arrived in Gwinnett for Thanksgiving week 2013.  And Georgia Power, which provides the juice, has an online method to track the situation when power goes out.

The utility has an outage map for its entire coverage area that lets customers track outages and estimated times of restoration. The map is available on desktop and mobile devices with Internet access.

Some key points:

  • the map is updated every 10 minutes;
  • users can find info about a particular outage by zooming into that area;
  • users can filter for particular counties and ZIP Codes;
  • users can report on an outage, and check on the status of their own outage, residential or business.
