Thousands of Victorians still without power after wild storms Circling back to Victorian premier Jacinta Allan’s press conference in Melbourne: Allan says thousands of Victorians are still without power after wild storms last week. According to the latest advice, she said 3,935 customers are without power as a result of the destructive winds that lashed the state last week.
I do really want to acknowledge for those households and businesses that they’re continuing to face those difficult circumstances and the support that has commenced with the prolonged power outage payment is there and available to support to support them. Allan said Energy Safe Victoria had already begun an investigation into the six towers that went down at Anakie, while the energy minister, Lily D’Ambrosio, has commissioned another independent review.
