Whether it's a near-miss from Hurricane Lee or a winter blizzard, there are plenty of reasons for the lights to go out in Maine. Who you gonna call?
For most of the state, the answer is Central Maine Power or Versant Power. Maine's two largest electric utilities are well-practiced in dealing with outages.
When you're waiting for electricity service to be restored, any delay can be too long. Still, it's worth noting that Maine utilities bear a heavy burden.
For example, trees and vegetation — the primary cause of downed power lines in a storm — cover 90% of Maine. The state is more heavily forested than any other in the U.S.
