Monday, 15 September 2025 16:09

Northern Powergrid Power Cut Map

Many homes and businesses in Ilkley are without power Monday afternoon [15 September] following a power cut first reported around 11am.

A number of properties had their power restored just after 12 midday, but at 4pm Northern Powergrid's 'power cut map' still shows 312 properties without a supply.

The company says it expects the power to be back on for most customers by 19:45 - 20:45.

Reports on social media suggest it was a fire at a sub station that cause the outage.

Louise Lowes, Director of Customer Service at Northern Powergrid said:

We’re still here if you need us – so if you need further information or additional support, please get in touch. You can send us a WhatsApp or call to talk to one of our advisors who are available 24 hours a day.

We’ll do our best to support you and get your power back on as soon as we can. In the meantime, if you need help, tell us – we are here to listen and support our customers whenever they need us."
