Electricity in Daytona Beach comes from Florida Power & Light (FPL). The city’s storm guide sends residents to FPL’s outage map, and outages are reported to FPL, not to City Hall.

Who to call

Check the map first

FPL’s Power Tracker map lets you enter your street address to see outages in your neighborhood, or your city or ZIP code to see the wider area, according to FPL. It also shows the share of customer accounts with power across FPL’s system and has a link to report an outage. If the map already shows your outage, FPL knows about it.

Report it

If the map does not show your outage, and your neighbors are also without power, report it:

  1. Online through FPL’s outage reporting page.
  2. By phone at 1-800-4OUTAGE (1-800-468-8243).
  3. In the FPL app, which you can get by texting App to MyFPL (69375).

If only your home is out, FPL’s power disturbances FAQ walks through what to check.

Get alerts

FPL can send automatic outage and restoration updates by email, voice or text when an outage lasts more than a few minutes. Enroll by texting Join to MyFPL (69375) or through your FPL account’s notification settings. FPL says the first alert usually goes out about 20 minutes after it confirms an outage.

In a storm

The city’s storm guide says restoration times depend on the severity of the storm and the damage, and points to fplmaps.com for updates. Its advice for outages:

  • Keep flashlights, extra batteries and a charged phone or power bank on hand.
  • Do not use candles for light.
  • Keep the refrigerator and freezer closed to keep food cold longer.
  • Never run a generator indoors.
  • Treat a dark traffic signal as a four-way stop.

Run a portable generator outside and plug appliances straight into it; never connect it to your home’s wiring, which can back-feed the lines and kill utility workers, Volusia County Emergency Management warns. Portable generators up to 10,000 running watts are tax-free in Florida year-round. More in our hurricane prep guide.

Medical needs

If someone in your home depends on electric medical equipment, register in advance for Volusia County’s special needs shelter program and plan for a backup power source. An outage can last days after a hurricane.
