Thank you for your patience as Clay Electric crews, assisted by mutual aid and contract crews, continue to make the extensive repairs necessary to our distribution system, which was damaged by Major Hurricane Helene.

Overall, approximately 79% of Clay Electric members have power as of 1 p.m. Saturday.

  • Duval, Flagler, Lake and Volusia counties are substantially complete.
  • We estimate that 98% of members living in Bradford, Clay and Putnam counties will have their power restored by 10 p.m. Sunday.
  • For our members in Alachua, Baker, Columbia, Gilchrist, Levy, Marion, Suwannee and Union counties, we hope to give a completion estimate on Sunday.

Please remember: If you see one of our crews working in your area, give them some additional space. If it's a two-lane road and you're unable to move over, we ask you please slow down to a speed that is 20 mph under the speed limit. Our lineworkers are working as quickly and safely as possible.
