DENVER—About 25,000 Xcel Energy customers east of downtown Denver were without power more than an hour in the same area where an explosion and fire at an electric power substation this summer knocked out power.
Power was restored after about 80 minutes Thursday evening. Xcel Energy spokesman Tom Henley says the utility is trying to determine what caused the latest outage.
The affected area included the Congress Park and City Park neighborhoods, but William Allstetter of National Jewish Health says the hospital didn’t lose power because it has another connection to the grid.
