The Peninsula Light Company is restoring power for residents between the Key Peninsula and Gig Harbor areas after a mechanical failure shut down an entire power system.

“PenLight dispatch is working to bring up substations slowly and restore power in sections as to not overload the system,” the Peninsula Light Company stated on X.
