Dear Lakeland Electric Customers,

As we enter hurricane season, I want to assure you that Lakeland Electric is prepared. Our team has been working year-round to make sure we’re ready to respond when severe weather threatens our community.

We continue to strengthen our infrastructure, train staff in emergency procedures, and pre-position materials and equipment so crews can respond without delay. That focus on reliability is why Lakeland Electric holds the Reliable Public Power Provider designation from the American Public Power Association, a national recognition earned by only 250 U.S. cities for excellence in reliability, safety, and workforce development. Our team remains committed to the standard you expect and deserve.

You can take steps to prepare as well. Here are a few ways to stay ready:

  • Review our Hurricane Guide, available on our website, for tips on how to prepare before, during, and after a storm.
  • Download the Lakeland Electric app to be notified of outages and receive updates.
  • Check our Outage Map at LakelandElectric.com during a storm to track restoration progress.
  • Make sure we have your current phone number so you can receive automated outage alerts.                   Call 863-834-9535 to verify.


Storms can bring uncertainty, but preparation can make a difference. Thank you for your continued trust in Lakeland Electric. We are committed to serving you through this hurricane season and beyond.

 

Sincerely,
Mike signature
