Watch: DTE Energy’s 3 p.m. Monday update on power outage restoration times

Thousands still without power in Metro Detroit

DETROIT – DTE Energy officials provided a live update on power outage restoration efforts after a winter storm knocked out power for hundreds of thousands of Metro Detroiters last week.

The update was at 3 p.m. Monday (Feb. 27). You can watch the full briefing in the video above.

DTE says more than 95% of customers who lost power Wednesday and Thursday have had it restored. More than 4,000 employees are still working to restore power to the remaining customers, according to the company.

The ice and winds from last week’s storm knocked out power for more than 600,000 DTE Energy customers. As of Monday afternoon, there were around 68,000 customers still in the dark.

Ryan Stowe, vice president at DTE Electric, spoke during Monday’s briefing.
