To be named the most reliable utility in a metropolitan service area in the Western United States means electricity is available when customers need it, with fewer interruptions than elsewhere in the West. The ReliabilityOne® Awards are given annually to utilities in eight regions that have excelled in delivering outstanding reliable electric service to their customers.

SDG&E uses LiDAR technology to capture vegetation clearances for more than 4,000 miles of distribution circuits within the areas at most risk for wildfires to inform and prioritize vegetation management activities. SDG&E is deploying its own private communications network to seamlessly and instantaneously transmit data to and from its infrastructure and field crews to help prevent wildfires by supporting advanced protection and drone technologies and machine learning. Grid Sustainability & Customer Resiliency Grid sustainability and energy reliability have been a primary focus for SDG&E. The company has invested in multiple programs to advance the use of clean energy and improve customer resiliency. This includes the construction of several renewable microgrids to keep communities and critical facilities energized during Public Safety Power Shutoffs while taking advantage of California’s abundant solar resources. SDG&E developed “The Path to Net Zero,” an actionable roadmap recommending a diversified approach to decarbonization utilizing clean electricity, clean fuels and carbon removal to achieve California’s 2030 and 2045 greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals. SDG&E has developed a suite of clean energy solutions, including two battery storage sites, to bolster grid reliability and community resilience during the hot summer by easing the strain on the larger energy grid. “This recognition is a reflection of the work of our 4,600 incredible employees who show up each day with drive and innovation to provide some of the healthiest, safest, strongest and most reliable energy service today and for generations to come in our region,” said Winn.
