Over the past year, America’s electric companies confronted historic hurricanes, devastating wildfires, tornadoes, a powerful derecho, and a record-breaking October ice storm—not to mention a global pandemic. Each storm and each natural disaster was unique and created new challenges, and the electric power industry worked together more closely than ever to safely and efficiently restore power to customers.
In this episode, EEI Vice President of Security and Preparedness Scott Aaronson joins us to discuss how electric companies are preparing for the 2021 hurricane and wildfire season and what steps customers can take now to prepare for the possibility of power outages.
