Extreme Weather

 

Communication is at the centre of our members' severe weather management strategy, both with the public and across the industry.

Key issues:

  • Staff from our member companies work hard to safely restore supplies, often in very difficult conditions.

  • There is effective cooperation between member companies to provide assistance in times of acute need.

  • The industry seeks to learn from experience.

  • Storm preparedness strategies are flexible and constantly improving and, as a result, most power failures caused by storms are reinstated in a matter of hours.
