Our approach to addressing climate change focuses on adaptation in addition to mitigation. As we have experienced firsthand in California, the effects of climate change have become undeniable. Both the public and private sectors must plan to adapt to the challenges climate change brings. With a focus on vulnerable communities, SCE is working to coordinate medium- and long-term actions and associated investments across sectors to optimize the societal benefits ofadaptation planning。在短期内，我们继续适应系统的威胁climate change-driven wildfires。

长期评估

2022年5月，SCE公开了climate adaptation vulnerability assessment (CAVA), which evaluates the potential long-term impacts of temperature, precipitation, sea level rise and wildfire hazards on our infrastructure and operations. The assessment uses 10 California-endorsed Global Climate Models as the best representation of climatic patterns and a conservative, high-emissions global warming scenario to ground this assessment. We also engaged with the community to inform the assessment, with a particular focus on our stakeholders in disadvantaged vulnerable communities (DVCs).¹

爱迪生国际适应明天：为弹性的未来提供动力summarizes key takeaways including the types of vulnerabilities SCE, our customers and our communities could face. Findings include the need for climate adaptation investments over the next three decades, starting with no-regrets foundational measures now; the incorporation of future climate states into planning processes; a common level of understanding of climate change risks among communities and stakeholders; and significant collaboration between private and public sector stakeholders to perform cross-sector resiliency planning.

To support the CAVA, in 2021, SCE launched our Climate Resilience Leadership Group, a forum of community leaders working with SCE on a six-month engagement to collect local feedback from DVCs. The feedback helped SCE identify gaps in our thinking about local community resilience, and we included these insights the CAVA. For example, qualitative feedback collected from these engagements helped SCE adjust and improve quantitative metrics developed to assess how modifying our grid to address climate change impacts would impact surrounding communities.

近期行动

在近期，SCE继续使我们的系统适应气候变化驱动的野火的威胁。总共，约250万英亩burned in California in 2021 — fewer acres than in 2020 but on par with 2019, a previously record-breaking year. In October 2021,a drought emergencywas declared across California. Increasing temperatures and heightened drought conditions make areas much more vulnerable to wildfire, especially in high fire risk areas (HFRA), which comprise approximately 27% of SCE’s service area.

SCE继续硬化电网，以确保对这些不断增长的气候变化影响的安全性，电网弹性和系统准备。我们在2021年达到或超过了几乎所有的野火缓解目标。我们安装了1,500多个电路覆盖的导体，使总数达到了2900多英里，覆盖了HFRA中大约30％的高架开销线路。

由于我们的野火缓解工作，我们估计最常受影响的电路的客户经历了少70％public safety power shutoff (PSPS)根据2021天的天气和燃料条件，停电时间比没有进行工作的时间比没有进行。与建模公司风险管理解决方案合作，SCE估计，截至年底2021年，我们的野火缓解工作减少了与SCE设备相关的灾难性野火损失的可能性，自2018年以来，与SCE设备相关的灾难降低了65％至70％。2021年估计为55％至65％。此外，PSP对总风险降低的贡献从2021年6月和年终之间从40％下降到30％，反映了SCE对PSP的依赖减少作为缓解措施。

SCE also continued to strengthen partnerships with state fire agencies, as well as academia and peer utilities, to advance wildfire defenses. In 2021, we supported the debut of the most effective水和阻滞剂的直升机in the world and the formation of the first-of-its-kind, quick-reaction aerial firefighting force. SCE contributed $18 million to Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA), Los Angeles Fire Department and Ventura County Fire Department for the lease of firefighting equipment, after successful partnerships with OCFA in 2019 and 2020. SCE also continued to collaborate with the国际野火风险缓解联盟这是一个于2020年在加利福尼亚投资者拥有的公用事业和澳大利亚公用事业之间成立的小组，为全球公用事业创建了一个框架，以共同应对全球野火威胁。

SCE是新创建的关键资助者和技术领导者Cal Poly San Luis Obispo’s Wildland-Urban Interface Fire Information, Research and Education Institute.该研究所是加利福尼亚大学的第一个同类研究所，正在寻找整体解决方案来减轻Wildland Urban Interface Fire的后果。住房，商业开发和野生地区聚会的土地被称为Wildland Urban界面。荒野城市界面中的大火是加利福尼亚州宣布灾难的最常见来源，由于气候变化和对这些地区的住房需求的增加，越来越频繁和破坏。
