⚠️ Outage Postponed – Kingston Area ⚠️

Due to the threat of severe weather headed our way, and the uncertainty as to when it will enter our service territory. Rockwood Electric Utility has made the decision to postpone the planned maintenance outage with TVA that was scheduled to begin tonight at midnight in the Kingston area.

The safety of our employees and our community is our top priority. We want to ensure our crews remain fully available to respond to any unplanned outages that may occur as a result of the incoming storms.

At the present time, our plans are to reschedule this outage beginning at 11:00PM this coming Wednesday evening so that we can be through shortly after midnight.

If you have any questions, please contact our Customer Service team at 865-717-5400.

Thank you

🚨 Planned Outage Notice (WEATHER PERMITTING)– Kingston Area 🚨

Rockwood Electric Utility and TVA will have a planned outage (weather permitting) at the Kingston Substation during the early morning hours of Tuesday, April 28th from 12:00 AM to 3:00 AM. This outage is necessary to transfer load to a mobile transformer in order to take the existing transformer out of service for testing, inspection, and maintenance. This maintenance is necessary to ensure continued reliability of the electric service.

If you were affected by the previously scheduled outages in the Kingston area, this outage will affect you.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to maintain and improve our system. If weather prohibits REU from having the outage, it will be re-scheduled, most likely at the next available opportunity.

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ RP3 Platinum Level ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

The Reliable Public Power Provider (RP3) program is a national designation given by the American Public Power Association. Currently, only 258 of the nation's more than 2,000 public power utilities hold an RP3 designation that recognizes them for providing communities with the highest degree of reliable and safe electric service.

We’re proud to share that our team has been recognized as a Platinum Level Reliable Public Power Provider (RP3) by the American Public Power Association!

This national designation reflects our commitment to delivering safe, reliable electric service to our community every day. With only a small percentage of utilities across the country earning RP3 status, this achievement is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our entire team.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to serve our community and remain committed to powering your lives with excellence.
