As Utilities across the country, prepare to address Climate Crisis risks to the electrical grid, one Utility stands out for their forward-thinking … Seattle City Light, also known as the Nation’s Greenest Utility.

In 2015, the agency realized one impact of the Climate Crisis could be reduced precipitation in the mountains where they collect water used to power their hydroelectric plants. This progressive thinking lead SCL to conduct a detailed Climate Risk Assessment.

The New York Times discusses how most Utilities across the United States still remain unprepared to deal with the impacts of the Climate Crisis leaving homeowners to contemplate their options including solar. The wildfires in the Western part of the US are increasing in frequency and intensity and many of these fires have been ignited by downed Utility lines creating blackout scenarios for thousands and even millions of people.
