It’s official—the new switchgear (think of giant circuit breakers) was installed at Vista Substation.

πŸ‘€ Watching the new equipment float in was a great reminder how Benton PUD's forward-focused collaboration, hard work, and dedication keep our #CommunityPowered.

Why this matters to you:
♾️ More resilient, modern grid
πŸ’₯ Better rerouting during outages
🚧 Safer system for crews to work on

This milestone reflects months of teamwork from project management to field crews to logistics support who work behind the scenes keeping your lights on.

By continuously improving electric service reliability we stay ahead of the curve and support growing demand.

Huge thanks to everyone who helped make it possible!
