Wildfire safety and prevention
The safety of our customers and communities is our top priority. We work 24/7 to keep the power on safely and reliably, even in extreme weather. That’s why we’re building our system to be more resilient long term for all seasons and weather conditions. We've already invested $1 billion across our six-state system in wildfire prevention strategies and we will continue investing in system strengthening in the coming years. This includes developing an industry-leading meteorology program, rebuilding portions of our system with equipment upgrades, and using advanced technology to monitor conditions while increasing inspections and vegetation maintenance on our lines.
