Day 1 of Edison Electric Institute's #EEI2024 got off to a strong start!

The focus on wildfire prevention was front and center with insightful panels and discussions emphasizing how electric companies can reduce the risk of grid infrastructure being involved in wildfire ignitions by deploying key mitigation technologies and practices. 

Maria Pope, Portland General Electric's CEO, and Chris Rogers built a strong case for investing in #wildfire mitigation technologies such as Cameras/AI and Weather Stations and emphasized the importance of partnering with the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management on what has become “a society-wide issue.”

Patti Poppe and Steven Powell highlighted the diverse approaches to wildfire mitigation, emphasizing the importance of tailored solutions. Technology investments in situational awareness, vegetation management, and grid hardening, alongside partnerships with local command centers, were noted as key strategies for success. Our own Sonia Kastner walked through the impactful Kutch Fire case study, demonstrating the critical need for timely situational awareness for PGE and responding fire agencies to reduce the spread of fire and keep the power on in the area.

We look forward to what Day 2 has to offer. And if you are at the conference, please stop by to see us in The Hub!

#AI #wildfiremitigation

Pano AI hosted a breakfast discussion during #NARUC in Vail that brought together regulators, utilities, and first responders to discuss the role of cameras and #AI in enhancing #wildfire situational awareness. Discussion spotlighted how AI-driven technology can improve wildfire preparedness, resource allocation, and containment efforts, while also showcasing its integral role in utility #wildfiremitigation strategies, including smarter Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) strategies that maintain grid resiliency to safeguard communities.

We’re grateful for the meaningful conversations and the opportunity to work with forward-thinking leaders dedicated to community safety, wildfire risk mitigation, and grid resiliency. Together, we are making significant strides in using technology to help protect our communities from the threat of wildfires.
