PSE Storm Debriefing – April 12

Posted on by

Join the Griffin Neighborhood Association as it hosts a community meeting with representatives from Puget Sound Energy, April 12, 7:00 to 9:00 PM at the Griffin School Gym.

In attendance will be Casey Cochrane, PSE Government & Community Relations Manager and Amy Tousley, PSE Municipal Liaison Manager.

Recent and recurring storm-related interruptions of electrical service have focused community attention on the reliability of the distribution system in our area. This community event is an opportunity for area residents to meet with representatives of PSE to better understand the causes, the utility’s response to service interruptions, and what homeowners can do to help.

How does the system work to distribute electrical power to our homes?

What are some of the causes of recent electrical outages? Where did the system break down?

How does Puget Sound Energy prioritize work to restore service and what are some of the strategies employed to tackle a major outage, such as that which occurred in January?

What is being done by PSE and what can property owners do, to help make the system more resilient and prevent power outages in the future?
