Targeted Undergrounding

View videoUndergrounding lines, improving reliability
Targeted undergrounding improves storm response and reliability by using smart data to strategically identify the most outage-prone power lines and move those lines underground. Moving outage-prone lines underground can significantly reduce power outages and momentary service interruptions, and it can reduce costs and quicken restoration time after a major event for all customers.
Benefits
- Reduce the number of power outages, improving the quality of electric service in outage-prone areas
- Minimize momentary service interruptions
- Restore power faster for all customers following major storms
- Eliminate or reduce the frequency of tree and vegetation work needed for hard-to-access lines
