Kalebxx (@Kalebxx1) reported from South San Francisco, CaliforniaOver 1.2 million people without power in Northern California because @PGE4Me is shutting it off and you can’t even access their website to see when it will be coming back on. This is absolutely ridiculous.
-
scotia626 (@scotia626) reported from South San Francisco, California.@GavinNewsom has ceded leadership of #california to @PGE4Me and millions of people throw out food in the dark cut off from any safety messages because no cell or WiFi access. Who knew @maringov was a third world country. So many reckless fails here to cover PGE ass.
-
Nick Schiner (@ObiWanNICKobi) reported from Belmont, CaliforniaHowever, power isn't available to the masses, as it's being hoarded by the first arrivals. A tenuous situation that, if not properly handled by the shop elders, will descend into anarchy. @PGE4Me 2/2

Tracy Fallon (@TDFallon) reported from Burlingame, California@jersiegel @KQEDnews @KQED @PGE4Me nice time for pge's website to crash.

🏴 zen (@Z3NN) reported from San Bruno, CaliforniaSo @GavinNewsom is so focused on gun legislation that he fails in his daily duty to ensure that the citizens of California have their basic needs for power met because he is in bed with @PGE4Me & to top it off all those with medical needs are left to fend for themselves! Shocking

Lisa Silverstein (@RabbiLisaPJL) reported from Hillsborough Park, CaliforniaMy electricity will be out all day and I completely forgot to charge my electronics last night. I just plugged everything into my fully charged and underused electric car. I think I’m going to write a book called The Giving Tesla. ;) #TheGivingTree @PGE4Me @Tesla

George Andrews (@gjandrews) reported from South San Francisco, California@aria606 @PGE4Me Considering the Bay Area is the high tech capital of the world, this is shameful. Keep in mind, this is a pre-planned outage by @PGE4Me
-
Stephen Kling (@HandleThem) reported from Burlingame, California@dannoyes Those public officials need to stop pandering and shut up. If @PGE4Me feels a risk could be coming . I’m happy to live without power for 24 hours rather than risk a more dire situation.

🛰️ 🥃 🥓 Double Deadline 🥓 🍹🚀 (@Double_Deadline) reported from San Bruno, California@PGE4Me Dear @PGE4Me, you are the worst scammers of all. We hate you will all our hearts, forever and always. You are the absolute lowest scum on the face of the Earth, but even that is rude to scum.

Natalie Lambert (@nflambert) reported from San Carlos, CaliforniaThese @PGE4Me shut offs are obnoxious! There is no wind, we have no power lines above ground, and we have been told power is out or will be shortly. I understand doing things for precautionary purposes, but fix your infrastructure please!

Luke Evans Simon (@LukeEvansSimon) reported from San Mateo, CaliforniaPower outage since 5:00PM in San Mateo. I am afraid to open my fridge. @PGE4Me

(((Liz Ditz))). Mask up, y'all. (@lizditz) reported from Redwood City, CaliforniaJust got a text message from @PGE4Me that instead of 10:00 pm tonight (2/22) they expect to restore service 24 hours later (10:00 pm 2/23). 55 hour power outage from a windstorm. Crew safety is important, but there has been no rain.

MariaAntonieta Mejia (@MariaAMejia) reported from Redwood City, CaliforniaAnother day without power at home 🥶🥶🥶 @PGE4Me @PGE_SFPeninsula #redwoodcity

scotia626 (@scotia626) reported from South San Francisco, CaliforniaThe idea that the black out reduces risks presumes @PGE4Me is trustworthy to identify accurately what those risks are and where they lie. So riddle me this @GavinNewsom what makes you trust PGE with this decision making. Certainly not their malign track record. Do tell.

-
T Dog (@ironnfox) reported@bowtiedpixel @PGE4Me I’m about to lease it through Tesla. You know how often my power goes out? Like 10 times a year.
-
Ron Clements (@ronjblm) reported@PGE4Me What a joke. Our business rates went up again by 17% in January. We see this year after year. I don’t post but just saw this smoke and mirror and had to react. NOT a happy customer but we are stuck!

KickAaaS AI (@KickAaasAi) reportedWhen California’s largest utility provider had customers waiting over an hour on hold during outages, something had to change. For Pacific Gas and Electric (@PGE4Me), extreme weather events meant massive call surges — millions of inbound calls, arriving at the most stressful moments for customers. The result was predictable: Long wait times. Frustrated callers. Overloaded contact centers. That’s where @polyaivoice stepped in. Instead of forcing customers through rigid IVR menus, PG&E deployed a conversational voice AI that could actually help — in real time. What changed? • Customers received real-time outage updates without waiting on hold • Calls were handled naturally in English and Spanish • Safety-critical scenarios stayed compliant with strict utility regulations • Human agents were freed up to handle complex, high-impact issues And the results were measurable: → 35,000+ labor hours saved → 67% call containment rate, outperforming legacy IVR → 22% increase in CSAT during outage calls → 25% reduction in customer effort No IVR rip-and-replace. No shortcuts on safety. Just a smarter voice experience, operating at massive scale. The takeaway: No matter how large-scale or complex a problem may seem, there’s often a solution hiding in agentic AI — if it’s designed with empathy, safety, and scale in mind. Question for operators & builders: What’s the most “too big to fix” customer experience problem you’re facing today?

T™️ 🇨🇦….. 🇺🇸 (@CaliNuckian) reported@OfTheBraveUSA @PGE4Me still out here massively overcharging to keep the lights on.

@Marina (@megjones1111869) reported@PGE_BayArea @PGE4Me The automated texts you send out-may want to activate the areas re “site feedback” versus locking them.

JLahl (@JenniferLahl) reportedJust got an alert from @PGE4Me that our neighborhood has as an outage - within seconds @Tesla alerts me that my home is fully powered. 💥 Take that Gavin.

Big Bad (@Big_Bad42) reportedIn March 2026, the courts just finalized the sabotage. The Court of Appeal upheld NEM 3.0, cementing a 75% cut to solar credits. At the same time, @PGE4Me is rolling out their new monthly $24 "Base Services Charge." It’s a literal utility tax on energy independence.

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.

Janus (@UtahOligarch) reported@USNavyResearch @PGE4Me Earth is our cell and we only have one. You can’t just shoot rockets into space @NASA with bad electrophysics and assume the universe won’t fight back on our planetary cancer. Either you had this math all along, or you never did. Either way you’ve been lying to humanity.

JOTUS 1776 (@JotusX1) reported@Milajoy California charges more for energy between 4-9pm. Right as families are coming home. Making dinner doing laundry 🧺.
