PG&E Utility Wildfire Mitigation Conference

Our second wildfire mitigation conference, a "by utilities, for utilities" event, is intended to bring colleagues from across our industry together to collaborate on addressing the evolving challenges of wildfire mitigation and to share learnings on strategic outreach and communication efforts with regulators, stakeholders and customers.

This invitation-only conference will expand on our Near-Term Wildfire Mitigation Conference held last year, and focus on near and long-term wildfire mitigation solutions. Our goal is to foster meaningful dialogue and actionable insights that advance wildfire mitigation strategies, resiliency and strategic outreach and communication efforts across our industry.
