The way Sam Houston Electric Cooperative manages outages and delivers restoration information to members has taken a big step forward.
A new outage viewer application is now available via Sam Houston EC’s website. The interactive map offers detailed information about current system outages, including locations, members affected and restoration estimates.
“We are excited to be able to offer a level of restoration information to our members that we’ve be unable to provide in the past,” said Keith Stapleton, Sam Houston Electric Cooperative chief communications officer.
Offering this level of information through the Co-op’s website, Stapleton added, will aid tremendously in communications efforts during outages. This information will also be very beneficial in reporting to state and county emergency officials as well as media representatives during larger-scale outages.
