Grant Program to Strengthen Power Lines Against Extreme Weather Events.

This act aims to improve the reliability of electricity supply to your home. It allows power companies to receive funds for upgrading power lines, making them more resilient to storms, floods, or heatwaves. This means fewer power outages, especially in areas frequently affected by severe weather.
Key points
