Pacific Power’s Public Safety Power Shutoff Program

In recent years, the increased risk of wildfires has prompted the utility company serving Southern Oregon, Pacific Power, to implement their Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) program to protect communities and infrastructure. While these shutoffs are essential for public safety, they can be highly disruptive, leaving homes and businesses without power for hours or even days. Fortunately, True South Solar offers a reliable solution: Tesla Powerwall.

What is Pacific Power’s Public Safety Power Shutoff Program?

Pacific Power’s PSPS program is designed to reduce the risk of wildfires by proactively shutting off power in high-risk areas during extreme weather conditions. These shutoffs are typically triggered by factors such as:

• High winds
• Low humidity
• Dry vegetation
• Red Flag Warnings issued by the National Weather Service

While these measures are crucial for preventing wildfires, they can leave entire communities without electricity, affecting daily activities, essential services, and overall quality of life. They can be very frustrating for the people affected.

The Impact of Power Shutoffs

For many residents and businesses in Southern Oregon, power shutoffs mean more than just inconvenience. They can disrupt work, education, and even basic home functions. Medical devices, communication systems, refrigeration, and heating or cooling systems can all be compromised during extended outages. This is where the importance of a reliable backup power source becomes evident.

Many people assume that generators are the only solution to frequent summertime power outages. Generators are certainly a solution to consider, but they can be noisy, expensive, and reliant on fossil fuels. Plus, they only get used during power outages. Tesla Powerwall, when installed with solar panels, can help reduce your power bill, while also providing essential peace of mind for you and your family.
