I don’t think this feature is available now. Since there is no battery backup in the thermostat, if there is a power outage, thermostat will get switched off. Once the power is on, I think we have to set the temperatures again. It won’t remember the old settings.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, it does not call with a power outage. There are notifications when the temperature gets above or below certain temperatures. There are batteries inside the thermostat, but if your WIFI is not on backup battery, the Ecobee won't be able to notify you since the Ecobee does not have cellular capabilities.
