Wiregrass Electric Cooperative Prepared Ahead of
Severe Weather Threat HARTFORD, Alabama-As severe weather approaches our area, Wiregrass Electric Cooperative (WEC) wants members to know we are fully prepared to respond to potential outages and restore power as
quickly and safely as possible. AIL WEC linemen are on standby and ready to respond, and we’ve added two contract construction crews to support restoration efforts if needed. Should the storm’s severity require additional resources, WEC will coordinate with fellow Alabama electric cooperatives through our statewide mutual aid
network to bring in more assistance from unaffected areas. “We always prepare for the worst and hope for the best,” said Stevie Sauls, WEC Vice President of Member Services and Communication. “Our top priority is keeping members safe and restoring service
as quickly as possible after a storm.” Members are encouraged to stay weather-aware and report any outages they experience. WEC’s outage map is available online and updates in real time.
