Cindy Bi ㊙️ (@CindyBiSV) reported from Palo Alto, CaliforniaSaddened by this “1st world” problem🥺 My first project at @Accenture was with @PGE4Me in their SF office in 2007 before it was cut short due to budgeting, and then, financial crisis hit... 🙏🏼

-
Ashley ✨ she/her (@godessofvictry) reported from Sunnyvale, CaliforniaI feel like @PGE4Me has to be able to find someone smart enough by now to not shutoff power just because it *might* be windy. We have no projected wind here...at all...all week.

Giorgio (@CAGenXer) reported@CAgovernor You cannot be serious. I know @PGE4Me pays you and your wife ungodly sums of money but you've done both but make our energy bills skyrocket and then look for new ways to tax us on any small efficiency gains. You push us to EVs and solar then tax the hell out of us for it.
-
Kathy (@oneartmom) reported@PGE4Me Power out in Burlingame area Bill has doubled within a year but when you call you can’t get anybody to find out about a power outage. They just hang up on you or send you into some kind of doom loop do better PG&E.

Catherine Shiang (@cathshiang) reportedThe demurrer was denied by the Superior Court judge showing the claims against LADWP has legal basis. What are these claims? Who pays if plaintiffs win? These claims go to negligence in equipment maintenance (something @PGE4Me is at fault for for the city wide Christmas city wide blackout) of water management system From reservoir, water pressure to prioritizing cost cutting over maintenance. Failure to maintain and properly manage their electrical infrastructure, sub transmission lines causing the fire. Not turning off the power. And concealing this fact. And inverse condemnation. Meaning no need to prove fault, only a showing LADWP equipment caused the fire. 👉Of course any damages by LADWP, owned the city of LA, will be borne by their insurance company, and then, sadly from rate hikes to customers, and city taxpayers. So, ironically, customers and taxpayers end up paying for this lawsuit. There should be, instead, personal liability to those decision makers. Up in San Francisco, the current CEO of PGE Sameer Singh should be personally liabile for the Christmas 2025 Blackout. After all his entire career at PG&E was in equipment maintenance and risk prior to his ascension to CEO. He had personal knowledge of the equipment, the sub stations. In Washington DC, similarly the CEO of the 240 million tons of raw sewage spill, caused by the Potomac Interceptor collapse was a known maintenance issue. The CEO of @dcwater David Gadis knew of this interceptor issue. He said flippantly "The scale is one through five. Five being an emergency. A three is fair. So a 3.5, it was fair," he said. "It happened to break on us before we were able to get to it." Either his crew needs a new measuring scale or they measured wrong. The bottom line is these CEOs have direct knowledge and should be personally on the hook whether civil damages and/or criminal negligence.
