Energy asks Prescott residents to reduce electric usage

By submitted, 08/15/22 9:13 PM

LITTLE ROCK – Entergy is asking customers in the Prescott area to voluntarily reduce their electricity usage today, especially between 2 and 8 p.m. This unusual request is due to the demand for electricity potentially exceeding the available supply because of a problem with substation equipment.

If the power supply cannot meet the demand, periodic power outages might be needed to prevent an extended outage. As soon as the need for conservation ends, we will provide further notice to the public accordingly.
