Cayce, S.C. (WOLO)– Officials with Dominion Energy say as of Tuesday it has restored power to nearly 100% of customers impacted by Hurricane Helene. A spokesperson says line workers, tree crews, and volunteers worked to restore electricity to more than 446,000 customers throughout the state. Officials say the work included replacing more than 1,000 transformers, 2,300 poles and 7,000 spans of wire. “I am so proud of our family of employees and what they have accomplished in the last 12 days,” said Keller Kissam, president of Dominion Energy South Carolina. “They have exemplified our highest calling in life, and that is to serve others. Leaving their own families for more than two weeks, they embodied what it means to be their brother’s keeper, to be their sister’s keeper and to love their neighbors as themselves. I am humbled to stand with them and their families and say thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing all of us back from the darkness and into the wonderful light.” Of course not everyone is out of the dark, according to a map of outages in South Carolina, there are more than 25,000 customers still without power in Edgefield and McCorimick Counties.   Categories: Local News, News, State
