Ramping Up Resiliency in Houston: Featuring Nathan Brownell of CenterPoint Energy

In the wake of Hurricane Beryl, CenterPoint Energy began modernizing its system through the Greater Houston Resiliency Initiative (GHRI). To improve resiliency and reliability, the utility is performing targeted undergrounding of its power lines, clearing vegetation and installing storm-resistant fiberglass poles in its service territory.

For this episode of the T&D World Line Life Podcast, Nathan Brownell, vice president of resilience and capital delivery for CenterPoint, shares how his utility is striving to have the most resilient coastal grid in the country.
