Thank you, TECO customers, for your support during and after Hurricane Irma

Post-storm restoration in South Tampa.
Post-storm restoration in South Tampa.

Hurricane Irma won’t soon be forgotten. Not by many of our customers, not by communities across Florida and elsewhere and certainly not by those hit hardest by the storm. In many cases these are the people still working to recover from the damage – the ones who remain in our thoughts.

At TECO, we know we won’t forget the history-making restoration effort, in which we received help we’re grateful for from first responders and countless community partners alongside line repair and tree-trimming crews from across North America.

Welcoming crews from out of the area to help us restore power for the community.

Below, see some photos of the effort. Thank you for your patience as we worked around the clock to restore our customers’ power, thank you for the many kind words you shared – and thank you most of all for sharing our commitment to safety above all other considerations.
