Are you prepared for a power outage? We're not quite out of fire season yet! Even though the City of Santa Clara is not designated as a high fire threat area, there are still possibilities of a Public Safety Power Shut Off (PSPS). While the risk of wildfires is very low in Santa Clara, a #PSPS outage could impact our customers due to the interconnected nature of the electric grid. It’s important to have a plan in place. For more information about how you can prepare, visit SiliconValleyPower.com/SantaClaraReady.
