Safeguarding utility assets from wildfires
For utilities, wildfires are now an everyday operational risk, threatening assets, reliability, and the communities that depend on them. Our white paper shows how a multi-layered approach to the detection and monitoring of wildfires can ensure service continuity for forward-looking providers in an increasingly fire-prone environment.
Stop wildfires before they disrupt your grid
This whitepaper provides utility leaders, grid operators, and resilience teams with practical insights on how to address rising wildfire risks. Inside, you’ll find:
-
Why traditional detection methods are falling short in today’s fire environment
-
Lessons from real-world cases such as the Texas Smokehouse Fire
-
How modern utilities prepare for detection, monitoring, and response
-
The role of predictive fire behavior modeling in protecting assets and continuity
Why this matters
Wildfires are no longer seasonal anomalies. For utilities, they threaten infrastructure, reliability, and community safety at an unprecedented scale.
Aging infrastructure
70% of transmission lines are over 25 years old — increasingly prone to failure under wildfire stress.
Escalating outages
Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) cut power for entire communities, disrupting water, healthcare, and communications.
Billions at stake
Utilities face massive liability costs, rising insurance premiums, and expensive grid hardening measures.
Community trust
Frequent outages and slow responses erode stakeholder confidence and damage customer relationships.
Strengthen utility reliability with proactive fire intelligence

Smarter wildfire resilience for utilities
Traditional methods like patrols and cameras can’t keep up with today’s fast-moving fires. Blind spots remain, detection is delayed, and small ignitions often escalate before crews arrive.
Multi-layered approach
OroraTech’s Wildfire Solution (WFS) provides the real-time intelligence utilities need. By combining satellite detection, predictive fire modeling, and integrated dashboards, WFS enables:
-
Ignition detection within minutes, even at night or in remote areas
-
Forecasts of fire spread to protect assets and guide field crews
-
Unified situational awareness across thousands of miles of grid
