As of 5:30 pm on Friday, Hainan Power Grid Company has confirmed that 830,000 households have been affected by power outages on multiple lines damaged by fallen trees and debris. In response, the company deployed 1,450 repair personnel and 445 vehicles to expedite the restoration efforts, with power restored to 260,000 households by 10 pm.

Many internet users have commented that compared to Super Typhoon Rammasun which hit the province 10 years ago, the restoration of urban power supply this time has been quite fast.
