The Reliability Roadmap from Consumer’s Energy has been one of their most ambitious projects to date with the aim of limiting the amount of people affected by a power outage and if someone does lose power, will have it back within 24 hours.
To achieve this impressive feet Consumer’s Energy has been working tirelessly to bury lines and shore up the strength of our power grid in Northern Michigan.
One of the many programs that help to do so is the Consumer’s Energy wildlife protection which installs grates, protection devices, and breakaways so that local animals do not contribute to the 8% of power outages caused by wildlife in Northern Michigan.
