This is where an $11 Billion wildfire settlement leads. If PG&E are being held financially responsible for the actions of their transmission and distribution lines in high wind events then I would expect them to fight for the right to not transmit and distribute power in those events. What's bad for consumers is even though you may not live in a high wind area the transmission lines ultimately serving you may be in one and subsequently shut off. On a more positive note, if these actions prevent wildfires that destroy property and claim lives then isn't it worth it?
