      In all the conversation about PG&E's looming bankruptcy, I feel like Californians grossly underestimate the costs of adapting our energy grid to climate change/wildfire. It's $4-5M/mile to underground lines, $5K/stump to remove hazardous trees. PG&E did 451K of them after 2016.

      Actually, it's a statewide labor shortage of anyone willing to do physically risky jobs that are prone to accidents.https://twitter.com/FactChecker23/status/1084840346343768064 …

      $5M is actually Berkeley costs so it's likely to be somewhat cheaper in cheaper parts of the state. There's just a mass labor shortage for physically demanding jobs, period. https://www.cityofberkeley.info/Clerk/City_Council/2018/02_Feb/Documents/2018-02-20_WS_Item_03_Conceptual_Study_for_Undergrounding_-_Pres.aspx …

      You also have to factor in things like earthquake faults, steepness of the land, etc. It's much cheaper to maintain and restore overground powerlines as well. The CPUC has an anti-undergrounding stance at the moment.

      less density = less taxpayers/mile wire to pay for the cost of undergrounding....?

      but basically, the whole point of my initial statement is that this is going to be really, really expensive and you can be mad at PG&E, we can nationalize it, etc. But at the end of the day, we're going to have to deal with this very large expenditure & change in mindset.

          the endpoint of Wiener's idea to have a SF power company is that the cities get their own municipal power utilities and the rural areas are screwed. maybe that's OK, I dunno. (obviously a lot of rural power infra serves the urban centers, but a lot doesn't)

          Keeping a few high voltage lines clear from trees is a lot easier than all the last mile infrastructure needed to serve rural communities. There's a reason the original rural electrification buildout needed federal subsidies.

          Have to bring more generation local to reduce cost per mile on transmission as well as fire risk. Rooftop solar can meet some demand but obviously not enough... What options are there? We need to reboot National Conservation Corps for a number of economic and environmntl. reasons
