Undergrounding reduces the risk of ignitions in areas at the highest risk of wildfire by nearly 98%.
There is no more effective solution to reducing the risk of wildfire ignition from electrical equipment. However, the CPUC is proposing we instead install insulated overhead powerlines, which by themselves only reduce ignition risk by 65%.
This newspaper’s editorial board suggests that PG&E is prioritizing profits at the expense of its customers. In fact, since 2020, PG&E has reinvested 100% of its profits back into improving our gas and electric systems and into supporting our communities. But the risk of wildfire remains extremely high. There are more than 6,100 wildland fires every year in our state, with 1.1 million acres burned.
Our customers have lived through the devastating consequences of wildfires. They have told us they want undergrounding. The local leaders who represent them want more undergrounding in their communities.
