Storm Éowyn left it's mark on Laois, Offaly and Westmeath with extensive damage to many power sources.
Over 4,000 homes, farms and businesses across the midlands remain without power after the effects of Storm Éowyn.
The highest number in the region is still in Westmeath, with more than 3,100 customers with no electricity.
That's followed by 1,212 in Offaly and just 12 in Laois.
The majority of these faults are expected to be fixed and power returned in the next week.
