After several 10-second faults and inaccurate PG&E notifications claiming, Power is on we were plunged into a sustained blackout. We cannot compete globally while navigating a vulnerable, 1970s-era overhead grid. Reliability is a shared responsibility; as neighbors, we are committed to trimming private trees and providing maintenance access. However, we need a matching commitment to modernization. We plead for PG&E and the city to invoke Rule 20A credits to underground our lines.

Residential electricity rates will decrease about 5%.

Miraculously, both my parents are safe, Fox wrote. My mom was in the living room when the house suddenly and violently exploded. . . . My mom's glasses were blown off her face. Her phone, wallet, and ID, clothing, documents. A lifetime's worth of tools and family heirlooms are gone in an instant. The explosion in the 800 block of East Lewelling Avenue happened about 9:38 a.m. and caused a three-alarm fire.

Fire crews are still on the scene of a home explosion that happened near Hayward on Thursday, sifting through the rubble and debris. Three people were seriously hurt in that explosion, while three others suffered minor injuries. There are still questions to be answered, including why PG&E and emergency crews did not evacuate the area when they learned of a gas leak there. PG&E crews brought in fencing on Friday to close off the home that exploded and the ones next to it.

A natural gas line leak triggered a dramatic explosion that destroyed a Bay Area home on Thursday, injuring six people and damaging several other properties. At least one person was inside the home before it was leveled in the blast. The individual managed to escape without injury, but six others were hurt, including three who suffered serious injuries, Alameda County Fire Department spokesperson Cheryl Hurd said.

As scores of students swarmed out of their Milpitas elementary school on a recent afternoon, a lone bald eagle perched high above them in a redwood tree - only occasionally looking down on the after-school ruckus, training his eyes on the grassy hills along the western horizon. The week before, his mate was electrocuted on nearby power lines operated by PG&E.

The first power projects in PG&E's pipeline to serve data centers could appear on the grid as soon as next year, despite some hints of softening demand, as the utility titan races to meet the tech industry's hunger for the data hubs. PG&E is in the final engineering stages for electricity projects that would produce a combined 1.6 gigawatts of energy to serve data centers in the South Bay, said Mike Medeiros, PG&E vice president of strategic commercial solutions,

"Millions of California families will see money back on their electricity bills in October,"

If you're a PG&E customer and have been curious about induction cooktops, you can now test-drive one for free for two weeks through the PG&E Induction Cooktop Loaner Program.

PG&E's Elkhorn battery storage system, comprising 256 Tesla megapack batteries, automatically disconnected from the electrical grid when the nearby Vistra battery storage system ignited in January. The Elkhorn system remained inactive until June, when Tesla, which maintains the system, began a series of operational and safety checks in hopes of resuming operations that month. During its tests, a clamp failure in one of the megapacks caused a coolant leak.

Last week, an unexpected visitor from PG&E started a fire on Montoya's private property, causing panic and danger for his family and animals.

It's very traumatic. They just quickly explode, and it's really violent.
