Tropical Storm Bertha has intensified, with warnings issued for parts of Florida. While the storm is expected to weaken as it moves inland, it highlights the vulnerability of the Gulf Coast to severe weather events.

This underscores the importance of grid resilience in hurricane-prone areas. Utilities must continue to invest in infrastructure upgrades to minimize outages and ensure rapid recovery.

Why it matters: Storm preparedness is a critical operational priority. Enhancing grid resilience through technology and infrastructure investments will be key to maintaining customer trust during hurricane season.
