SDG&E's recognition is a result of several key initiatives that have contributed to its exceptional performance. These include advanced wildfire mitigation and grid hardening efforts such as the Wildfire & Climate Resilience Center. This center serves as a hub for research, development, and implementation of innovative solutions to address wildfire risk and increasing climate challenges.
The company also utilizes cutting-edge technology such as the Climate Intelligence Platform and Wildfire Next Generation System (WiNGS) which leverages AI and data modeling to simulate climate scenarios. This assists SDG&E in enhancing grid infrastructure and reducing wildfire risks. Additionally, SDG&E operates one of the nation's most sophisticated weather forecasting networks which provides real-time data to better anticipate and address weather-related threats.
SDG&E's commitment to resilient and sustainable energy solutions is also evident through initiatives such as renewable microgrids. These microgrids supply critical infrastructure and communities with energy during Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) events, supporting continuity and the use of renewable energy. The company's "Path to Net Zero" roadmap outlines strategies to help achieve California's ambitious emissions reduction targets through cleaner energy sources and carbon removal.

PA Consulting has been analyzing electric utility performance since 1987, making the ReliabilityOne® Awards a highly respected benchmark in the industry.

SDG&E's consistent recognition by PA Consulting is a testament to its unwavering commitment to providing reliable and resilient energy solutions for its customers. As the company continues to prioritize safety, sustainability, and customer satisfaction, it remains a leader in the industry for its exceptional reliability performance.
