The invention discloses a method and a system for processing power failures. The method comprises the following steps: judging whether a failure included in a failure repair work order is initially repaired by receiving the failure repair work order sent by a user client; if yes, sending a failure rush repair command so that a rush repair worker performs a rush repair on the failure according to the failure repair work order; if not, sending a processing state message to the user client, wherein the processing state message comprises a processing progress or a processing result. Through the scheme, after the failure repair work order sent by the user client is received, whether the failure is initially repaired is judged, when the failure is not initially repaired, the processing state message is directly fed back to the user client, the rush repair worker does not need to receive repeated messages after the repeated messages are received to cause that the repair messages are receivedby the rush repair worker for one same failure repeatedly, and the problem that the resources are wasted caused by repeated communication is solved.
