Frail power grid, shareholder greed
My frustration lies with shut off being the primary source of management for the wildfire risk due to wind and dry weather. I would like to see less money going to shareholders so that Xcel can spend money on burying or improving the frail power grid to make it more robust . Customers without power as the new normal and shareholders still making record profits as our rates increase doesn't make sense. If Xcel truly reports to the PUC, then the PUBLIC should be considered in making the grid more robust, at a cost to shareholders. Not every company makes record profits every year, and more money from Xcel needs to go back into the grid to make it safer from the high winds and dry conditions that aren't going away. I know it will take 20 to 30 years, but make Xcel do it! Otherwise, we are just following the political and financial fraud example of California, Southern California Edison and PGnE. PUC do your job, stop letting Xcel divert money from Colorados infrastructure.
