At PPL, we’re dedicated to keeping you safe and keeping the lights on—day and night—in any weather, however we can. How do we do that? We provide reliable service through cutting-edge smart grid technology; new power lines and substations; stronger, more storm-resistant poles; innovative data analytics; and keeping trees clear of power lines with proactive vegetation management.
Innovation to Improve Reliability
When there’s a problem — or a fault — on a power line, it can cause power outages for our customers. But thanks to a game-changing new system, these problems impact fewer customers than ever. The new system, created by our own engineering teams and vendor partners, uses smart devices that interrupt faults remotely. They’re called “vacuum reclosers.”
