SCE expands consequence modeling, adopts zonal fire‑climate approach and ties inspections to mitigation selection
Summary
Southern California Edison said it expanded consequence simulations to its full service territory, adopted zonal fire‑climate selection for worst days and tightened a feedback loop from inspection findings to mitigation selection through a Fire‑Incident Preliminary Analysis process.
Southern California Edison told the Office of Energy Infrastructure Safety that it has retooled consequence modeling and inspection practices to improve localized assessments and to more tightly connect findings to mitigation priorities.
“We expanded our wildfire simulations to cover our complete service territory. Originally, we were just doing the HFRA plus a buffer. Now we've expanded it to our complete service territory,” SCE presenter Ray said. He described three principal changes: covering the full territory in consequence modeling (not only HFRA), using regional fire‑climate zones to select representative worst fire days for each zone, and incorporating building‑loss factors and other condition‑specific…
