On December 17, 2025 Xcel Energy implemented a public safety power shutoff impacting approximately 50,000 customers across the front range. This is Xcel's second PSPS event, the first being in April 2024. The PUC received extensive public input following the 2024 event, much of it focusing on lack of notice, inadequate communication during the event, poor mapping of impacted areas and poor planning to protect critical infrastructure and facilities. Since 2024, the PUC has taken several steps requiring Xcel to improve its actions across each of these areas.
