SCE – Resilience and EM Strategy
In today's rapidly evolving threat landscape, utilities face rising challenges that demand robust emergency management (EM) and resilience strategies. Don Daigler, Senior Vice President of Emergency Preparedness and Response at CenterPoint Energy and formerly Managing Director of Business Resiliency at Southern California Edison (SCE), brings more than 40 years of expertise in EM, business continuity, hazard assessment, and wildfire management. Recognizing that "the threat environment utilities face today is vastly different than it has been in the past," Daigler has been instrumental in transforming how utilities like SCE approach crises, including climate threats, wildfires, cybersecurity, and grid strains. This case study delves into Daigler's journey in revitalizing SCE's resilience, lessons learned from events like the San Gabriel Windstorm and California wildfires, and the strategies employed to build a response team equipped for modern utility challenges.
