More than a year ago.
The temperature dropped to around zero just before Christmas of 2022, causing a surge in electric use on December 23rd of last year.
LG and NQ cut Power to about 55,000 customers, according to Louisville Public Media.
The Public Service Commission is now investigating what caused that to happen and what the utility companies have done since then to prevent it from happening again.
Daniel Lowery, a spokesperson for the two companies, says the companies have taken steps to improve winter service.
