PSE&G is reporting the following preliminary figures as of 7:00 p.m. today:

• As of 7:00 p.m., PSE&G has restored power to 2,648 customers affected by the snow and frigid temperatures since Saturday at 3:00 p.m.
• PSE&G has mobilized its workforce to support the restoration efforts, including line workers, gas utility workers, tree trimmers, surveyors, contractors and other field personnel.
• As of 7:00 p.m., much of our service territory has seen over 10 inches of snow with the precipitation forecasted to continue into tomorrow morning. Much of our service territory is expected to experience sleet and potentially freezing rain throughout the night, especially in the southern portion of the state, which can impact utility lines.
• Customers should be aware that our Customer Service Centers located around the state will be closed on Monday, January 26, 2026. For help with inquiries, customers can reach PSE&G via our mobile app, website, My Account, and the call center.
• As safety permits, crews are actively working to restore any customers out, with some locations including complex restoration work often involving significant tree damage. Customers can find their estimated time of restoration on the PSE&G Outage map.
• Please visit the outage map to view the current number of outages. All jobs will be restored safely and as quickly as possible.
• Crews continue to work in difficult conditions and will continue to work safely and as quickly as possible, in 16-hour shifts, until all outages are restored.
• PSE&G encourages all residents to be aware of and follow the New Jersey State of Emergency declared on Saturday, January 24, 2026, which aims to limit travel and enhance public safety.
• PSE&G recognizes that being without power for any length of time is a hardship, especially in frigid temperatures, and appreciates customers' patience and understanding as crews work to restore electric service.

Customer Safety:

• Downed wires should always be considered "live." Stay at least 30 feet away from downed wires, and don't go near the pole or anything touching the wire. Immediately contact PSE&G at 1-800-436-PSEG (7734), via our mobile app or on our website to report downed wires and dial 911 if an immediate hazard exists. 
• Electric current passes easily through water. If you encounter a pool of standing water, stop, back up and choose another path.
• Never use a generator or any gasoline-powered engine inside your home, basement, or garage or less than 20 feet from any window, door or vent. Use an extension cord that is more than 20 feet long to keep the generator at a safe distance.
• If you smell a gas odor, immediately exit the building, move at least 350 feet away, call 911.
• When it snows, keep pipes, vents, and meters on the outside of your home clear of snow – otherwise, you may inadvertently allow carbon monoxide to build up in your home. Also, clear chimneys and vents of snow and ice accumulation for other gas appliances.
