PG&E and Itron plan about 3,000 sensors for high fire-risk communities.
Itron (ITRI) and PG&E (PCG) are expanding their collaboration to deploy about 3,000 grid edge sensors in high fire-risk areas to improve wildfire prevention and grid reliability. The technology aims to detect and classify faults in real-time, enabling faster response and reducing outages. PG&E plans to scale the deployment to 10,000 devices by 2027 and hundreds of thousands by 2030, with partial funding from the EPIC program.
