Anukool Lakhina of San Jose, CEO of Burnbot, is one of dozens of high-tech entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley who are trying to use new forms of technology to solve the problem of mega-wildfires in the age of climate change.

Fire crews battled flames overnight, and on Thursday morning, the spread of the blaze, named the Thompson Fire, remained relatively stable, at around 3,700 acres burned.

The order requires, among other things, for PG&E to submit within 90 days a “corrective action plan."

South Bay residents should start preparing for a possible widespread electricity blackout that could last up to a seven days.

It’s hard to imagine what San Jose would look like if it went dark. But a plan by California’s largest energy provider could do just that.

PG&E may be solvent, but it is facing a cash flow problem as a byproduct of $30 billion in potential liabilities from a series of catastrophic fires.

Mention PG&E to Victor Porter, and the response is nothing like the bland non-opinion most Americans have of their utility provider.

The state says PG&E customers should not pay for the utility’s misdeeds if it was responsible for two of the most destructive wildfires.

Will lawmakers de-energize PG&E’s power to shut off the juice when the Red Flag warnings start flying again next year?

Many provisions of Senate Bill 901 have not yet taken effect, and even when they do, will impact the state gradually.
