California is generating more clean energy than ever before. We need a serious upgrade to our power system if we’re going to transition away from fossil fuels to affordable, reliable clean energy.
Grid Enhancing Technologies (GETs) help us do just that by making the grid we have more efficient, allowing more renewable energy onto the grid and into people’s homes.
Grid enhancing technologies and advanced conductors
Reduce the risk of blackouts by making the electrical grid more reliable
Save you money by supplying cleaner, cheaper electricity
Help you get more value from our existing grid
Reduce the risk of wildfires by giving operators advanced warning when conditions are dangerous
Reduce the need for fossil fuels by allowing more renewables onto the grid
How do they do it?
GETs measure the true capacity of grid infrastructure and move power onto parts of the grid with extra room.
