If you lose power and heat, I would suggest you have the following preparations made:
Alternate method of heat production that is not dependant on working utilities.
Sufficient warm clothing or blankets to survive the timespan you are without heat or utilities.
Stored water or access to a reliable reasonably clean water source of sufficient quantity to allow you to filter, purify, drink, and cook throughout the timespan where the power might remain out.
Appropriate tools to allow for cooking food using the least amount off cooking fuel.
For #3 and #4, I would suggest looking into a Kelly Kettle and or a rocket stove which both make excellent use of heat produced by small fires (such as twigs).
