A third-party crane incident near Tracy caused major damage—but PG&E’s frontline crews got to work. 💪 From making the site safe to restoring service, line and field crews showed real grit every step of the way. Proud of the crews who stepped up and came in strong for our customers.

Introducing PG&E's new, first-of-its-kind Continuous Monitoring Center—where millions of data points come together to help protect our hometowns by predicting and preventing outages and ignitions before they start. This new hub acts like a smart watch’s health app for the grid, constantly assessing data and issuing notifications before there’s an issue. In 2025 alone, this newest layer of our wildfire protection helped intercept 17 potential ignitions, avoid 12 million minutes of unplanned outages and reduce millions in costs. Last Friday, we pulled back the curtain on the team and technology making it all happen. Here's one clip from our media day to kick off the center: https://lnkd.in/gyuGqgXs FOX26 & CW59 (KMPH/KFRE) Jameel Bahlas, P.E. , MS Ravi Nair Eric Schoenman Andrew Abranches Craig Kurtz
