The Public Utility Commission Thursday released the 2015 Summer Readiness Overview reports from the state’s 11 electric distribution companies and the regional transmission organization, PJM Interconnection. The reports provide the companies’ preparations and plans for various conditions – such as severe storms and high temperatures – that may affect electric supply, price and service reliability for the summer months. “These updates are a helpful tool to ensure that electric utility service for Pennsylvania consumers remains safe and reliable,” said PUC Chairman Gladys M. Brown. “The Commission has a responsibility to safeguard utility service and these readiness reports document how the industry has prepared for potential high energy use this summer, storms and other factors that could impact service.” The reports focus on the following: reliability enhancement programs; preventive maintenance programs; capacity planning; 2014/15 storm updates and lessons learned; 2015 summer readiness; and storm response.
