BANGOR, Maine (WABI) — After roughly 4,000 Penobscot County residents lost power Monday afternoon, outages are being restored Monday evening.

CMP and Versant are still investigating the cause of the outages, but customers for both companies remain affected.

A Versant outage map showed more than 700 customers without power in Bangor and Hampden, which is down to just 2 customers.

CMP’s map showed nearly 3,300 customers without power, which is down to just 47 customers.

CMP says they expect power to be restored for all around 6:00pm.

We have reached out to both companies for a response and are waiting to hear back.
