PG&E Shuts Off Power To Dozens Of Communities In California

The Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) is conducting a preventive power shutoff across nearly 30 counties in Northern and Central California due to high winds posing a fire threat. Over 740,000 customers will be affected, with no announced restoration times. PG&E recently agreed to an $11 billion settlement for its role in major wildfires in 2017 and 2018, including the Camp Fire, the deadliest in California history. The current shutoff is the largest to date, with recent power cuts affecting over 10,000 customers in the Sierra Nevada. The National Weather Service has issued a red flag warning, indicating the highest fire risk.
