ENTERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES 2005
BY THE NUMBERS
<>
By any measure, the test presented by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita was of enormous proportions. Here are a few of
the major challenges presented by these monster storms and a few of the inspirational milestones our employees
achieved under the most trying conditions imaginable.
1.5 billion The estimated number of dollars Entergy will spend to
restore power and rebuild its system following the storms.
Estimate does not include other storm effects such as
estimated lost net revenue, uncollectible utility customer
receivables, and the longer-term accelerated replacement
of the gas distribution system in New Orleans.
1.1 million The peak number of customers without power following
Hurricane Katrina. Another 800,000 customers would
lose power four weeks later following Hurricane Rita.
249,000 The number of meals served to restoration workers
in the two weeks following Hurricane Rita.
>30,000 The number of line, vegetation, logistics, and support
workers mobilized to restore power following Hurricanes
Katrina and Rita.
28,900 The total number of distribution poles destroyed in
both storms.
>4,000 The number of workers recruited and committed for
response before each of the storms hit to ensure the
quickest, most effective response possible.
>2,200 The number of individuals and families who received
grants from The Power of Hope Fund to assist them in
rebuilding their lives.
706 The total number of transmission substations out at
the peak in both storms.
47 The number of days it took following Katrina’s landfall
to restore power to all customers who could accept
power, including customers impacted by Hurricane Rita.
10 The number of refineries served by Entergy that were
impacted by the hurricanes – presenting a nationwide
fuel supply issue and a high-priority restoration effort.
0 The number of times during the storm recovery that
we wavered in our commitment to safely generate clean,
reliable, affordable power for our customers.
