With active wildfires in parts of New Brunswick, we’re working closely with emergency management partners to help protect communities and the grid during this unprecedented weather.

Record-breaking temperatures can also impact our lines. For the safety of our communities and to prevent a greater risk of fire, we sometimes have to initiate temporary outages to safely complete critical repairs or maintenance. We know outages are disruptive, and we work hard to keep them as short as possible.

While we work to protect the grid and communities, you can also take steps to be ready for an outage during extreme heat, please refer to the government of new Brunswick web site: Heat Alert and Response System - gnb.ca

• If you lose power, report your outage at 1-800-663-6272 or nbpower.com/outages
• Have your 72-hour emergency preparedness kit ready.

The safety of our employees and all New Brunswickers remains our priority as we navigate these challenging conditions together.
