Yeah we're kind of remote and we once went for I think 9 days without power after a big weather event. Having a radio and a little gas camping stove were lifesavers. Also get lots of candles and books, one of my main memories of that time is how boring it was lol.

Next thing I want to do is get solar-ed up so we can just flip that on for an hour or two if needed. The previous power cut was years ago when a solar setup wasn't really feasible.
