TEPCO, Chubu Electric Power Co. and Tohoku Electric Power Co., Ltd. revealed that power outages that had continued in the jurisdiction due to the impact of Typhoon No. 19 were largely restored, except in areas where restoration work was difficult due to landslides and floods.

Among them, within Tohoku Electric Power Jurisdiction, a total of 144,000 households in the Tohoku region and Niigata Prefecture had a power outage, but it has been recovered to date.

However, at 11 am, it is said that it takes time to recover because 430 units have been out of power in areas such as Marumori-machi, Miyagi Prefecture where restoration work is difficult due to flooding or landslides.

In Chubu Electric Power, a maximum of 65,000 households had a power outage in the jurisdiction, but the power outage was generally recovered except in some areas.

According to Chubu Electric Power Co., Ltd., the power outage continued in 110 units in 8 municipalities such as Karuizawa and Nagano at 11 am.

On the other hand, a maximum of 435,000 households had a power outage in TEPCO's jurisdiction, but the power outage was mostly restored last night.

However, about 500 units in Saitama, Kanagawa, and Yamanashi prefectures that are difficult to restore due to landslides, flooding, fallen trees, etc. will be operated after landslides are resolved, so power outages are expected to continue for a while. It is said.
