Congratulations to Beartooth Electric Cooperative on reaching an exciting milestone: construction has begun on its wildfire mitigation project! As one of the first WARN consortium members to move into the construction phase, Beartooth Electric is helping demonstrate how proactive investments can strengthen grid resilience and reduce wildfire risk for the communities it serves. We are thrilled to celebrate this achievement and look forward to following the project's progress and the positive impact it will have for years to come.

Capital Electric Cooperative is taking an important step toward strengthening the reliability and resilience of its electric system through the Wildfire Assessment and Resilience for Networks (WARN) consortium. As a WARN consortium member, Capital Electric secured funding to convert a three-phase overhead distribution line to underground cable between Wilton and Regan, North Dakota—helping reduce wildfire risk while enhancing the system's resilience to severe weather. We applaud Capital Electric's commitment to investing in a stronger, more resilient grid and look forward to seeing the long-term benefits this project will bring to its members and community.
