Fire Weather Forecasted 

Red Flag Warnings have been issued for the western and eastern Cascade slopes for gusty winds and lightning storms. As part of PSE’s wildfire safe operations, we have turned on system settings that are more sensitive to potential hazards on targeted lines in these areas.

Enhanced Powerline Settings are designed to help keep you safe, but they may result in unplanned power outages.

This is NOT a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS), where we proactively turn off power in advance of severe weather.

We understand the impact unexpected outages can have on our customers, so we've added additional staffing for our first responders and our operations center.

For more information or to report a power outage, visit PSE’s Outage map.

Due to numerous wildfires in our region, air quality in many areas is within the unhealthy range. Wildfire smoke can seriously affect health, especially for high-risk individuals. To learn more about how to protect yourself and others, please visit the Washington State Department of Health page on staying safe from smoke.

alert 

Safety first. Never touch or go within 35 feet of downed power lines because they might be energized. Call PSE at 1-888-225-5773 or 911 to report problems.

Emerging Resources: Advanced Nuclear and Alternative Fuels

We’re undergoing one of the most significant transformations in our history as we strive to meet Washington state’s clean energy laws, while continuing to deliver the safe, reliable, and affordable energy our customers expect.

To achieve that goal, we are exploring new and emerging options for electric generation, including advanced nuclear technology and alternative fuels like renewable natural gas. Join us for a discussion with experts from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and PSE staff on what these resources are, their potential viability, and how they might help us achieve our goal of creating a reliable, clean energy future.
