XCEL ENERGY SERVICES INC.

BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE LAW (BIL) - WILDFIRE MITIGATION AND EXTREME WEATHER RESILIENCE FOR XCEL ENERGY THE RECIPIENT WILL IMPLEMENT WILDFIRE RISK REDUCTION, SYSTEM HARDENING AND TARGETED UNDERGROUNDING PROJECTS IN THEIR SERVICE TERRITORIES TO ACCELERATE AND ENHANCE ONGOING RESILIENCY PROGRAMS TO MINIMIZE GRID IMPACTS FROM WILDFIRES, WINTER STORMS AND OTHER HIGH-IMPACT, LOW PROBABILITY (HILP) ENVIRONMENTAL EVENTS. THE RECIPIENT WILL EXPAND AND ACCELERATE EFFORTS TO MITIGATE SEVERE WEATHER IMPACTS IN THEIR SERVICE AREA AS PART OF THE EXTREME WEATHER RESILIENCE PROGRAM.

PECO ENERGY COMPANY

BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE LAW (BIL) PECO CREATE PLAN: CREATING A RESILIENT, EQUITABLE AND ACCESSIBLE TRANSFORMATION IN ENERGY FOR GREATER PHILADELPHIA. THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PECO CREATE PLAN IS TO CATALYZE A GENERATIONAL TRANSFORMATION OF SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA'S ENERGY LANDSCAPE THROUGH A COMBINATION OF TARGETED INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTS AND COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY-BASED COLLABORATIONS TO REDUCE THE LIKELIHOOD AND CONSEQUENCE OF IMPACTS TO THE ELECTRIC GRID DUE TO EXTREME WEATHER AND RISING SEA LEVELS.

PACIFICORP

BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE LAW (BIL) - PROJECT PEER: PACIFICORP’S EQUITY-AWARE ENHANCEMENT OF GRID RESILIENCY THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVE OF PROJECT PEER IS TO REDUCE THE IMPACT OF EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS, PARTICULARLY WILDFIRES, ON SECTIONS OF THE ELECTRIC GRID THAT SERVE DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES. THE PROJECT FOCUSES ON DEPLOYING INNOVATIVE ASSET HARDENING SOLUTIONS USING CRITICAL FIRE-RESISTANT AND FIRE PREVENTION TECHNOLOGIES TO EFFECTIVELY REDUCE OR ELIMINATE IGNITION RISKS CAUSED BY OVERHEAD UTILITY ASSETS IN THE AREA, AND TO SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM RESILIENCY. ADDITIONALLY, PEER ADDRESSES YUROK TRIBAL RELIABILITY CONCERNS BY UPGRADING SUBSTATION ASSETS AND ADDING ADVANCED MICROPROCESSOR RELAYS. THE COMPREHENSIVE, COMMUNITY-FOCUSED SYSTEM HARDENING WILL IMPROVE RESILIENCE TO EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS BY (I.) DEMONSTRATING IMPROVEMENTS IN SYSTEM AVERAGE INTERRUPTION DURATION INDEX (SAIDI), (II.) REDUCING IGNITION RISKS FROM OVERHEAD DISTRIBUTION LINES, AND (III.) INTRODUCING PRE-APPRENTICE GRADUATES INTO THE WORKFORCE.

HOLY CROSS ELECTRIC ASSOCIATION, INC

BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE LAW (BIL) - WILDFIRE ASSESSMENT AND RESILIENCE FOR NETWORKS (WARN) THE WARN CONSORTIUM PROJECT WILL IMPROVE THE RESILIENCE OF THE PARTNER COOPERATIVES’ ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION GRIDS BY REDUCING THE RISK OF UTILITY-IGNITED WILDFIRES AND HARDENING THESE GRIDS AGAINST WILDFIRES OF ALL CAUSES. GRID RESILIENCE WILL BE IMPROVED THROUGH THE STRATEGIC DEPLOYMENT OF BOTH WELL-KNOWN METHODS AND ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES FOR GRID HARDENING, GRID OPERATIONS, AND CONDITION-BASED MAINTENANCE. THESE GRID DEPLOYMENTS WILL BE GUIDED BY THE DEVELOPMENT AND USE OF THE WARN ASSESSMENT TOOL. THE WARN TOOL WILL ASSESS THE VALUE OF RESILIENCE UPGRADES BY ESTIMATING THE EXPECTED VALUE OF AVOIDED LOSS OF PROPERTY, NATURAL RESOURCES, GRID ASSETS, AND STAKEHOLDER-IDENTIFIED CULTURAL AND COMMUNITY RESOURCES FROM UTILITY-IGNITED WILDFIRES. WARN WILL USE STATE-OF-THE-ART WILDFIRE IGNITION AND PROPAGATION MODELING USING GRID DATA, TERRAIN DATA, AND HISTORICAL WEATHER DATA. THE ASSESSMENT CAPABILITY PROVIDED BY WARN AND TESTED ON THE WARN CONSORTIUM ELECTRIC GRIDS WILL ENABLE COOPERATIVES TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE VALUE OF RESILIENT GRID UPGRADES AND JUSTIFY INVESTMENT IN THEM. THE KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE GAINED BY THE WARN CONSORTIUM WILL BE DISSEMINATED BY MAKING THE WARN ASSESSMENT TOOL AVAILABLE THROUGHOUT THE NATIONAL RURAL ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE ASSOCIATION (NRECA) COOPERATIVE COMMUNITY AND TRAINING COOPERATIVE PERSONNEL IN IT USE.
