Ahead of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, which begins tomorrow, June 1, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) is ready for a potentially active season and encourages customers to prepare their homes and businesses as well.

在明天6月1日开始的2024年大西洋飓风季节之前，佛罗里达电力和照明公司（FPL）已经为可能的活跃季节做好了准备，并鼓励客户也为房屋和企业做好准备。

How FPL prepares: FPL works year-round to ensure the energy grid is better prepared for extreme weather conditions, while also equipping its team with the necessary resources and rigorous training to help them respond quicker.

FPL如何做好准备：FPL全年工作，以确保能源网为极端天气条件做好更好的准备，同时还为其团队配备必要的资源和严格的培训，以帮助他们更快地做出响应。

Strengthening the grid: While no electric grid can be stormproof, customers have benefited from FPL's significant investments to upgrade and harden the poles and wires that serve them. This ongoing work, which has resulted in reduced outage times and helps communities get back on their feet faster following severe weather, includes:

加强电网：尽管没有任何电网可以抵御风暴，但客户受益于FPL为升级和硬化为其服务的电线杆和电线而进行的巨额投资。这项正在进行的工作减少了停机时间，并帮助社区在恶劣天气下更快地重新站起来，包括：

  • Strengthening main power lines that serve critical community facilities and services.
  • Proactively relocating neighborhood power lines underground – which perform significantly better during severe weather – through the Storm Secure Underground Program.
  • Managing thousands of miles of vegetation to minimize a leading cause of outages – trees making contact with power lines.
  • Installing more than 215,000 intelligent devices along the electric grid, helping avoid over 600,000 power outages during the past two storm seasons.
  • 加强为关键社区设施和服务提供服务的主要电力线。
  • 通过 Storm Secure Underground 计划，主动将邻里电力线转移到地下，这些线路在恶劣天气下的表现要好得多。
  • 管理数千英里的植被，以最大限度地减少停电的主要原因——树木与电力线接触。
  • 在电网沿线安装了超过 215,000 台智能设备，帮助避免了过去两个风暴季节中超过 600,000 次停电。

A message from FPL President and CEO Armando Pimentel: "FPL is ready for the 2024 hurricane season. We prepare by strengthening the electric grid to better withstand severe weather and by training our team year-round to ensure we are ready to respond when the next storm comes our way. Just as we're prepared, we urge all our customers to take steps now to prepare their families, homes and businesses."

FPL总裁兼首席执行官阿曼多·皮门特尔致辞：“FPL已经为2024年的飓风季节做好了准备。我们做好准备，加强电网以更好地抵御恶劣天气，并全年培训我们的团队，以确保在下一次风暴来临时做好应对准备。正如我们做好准备一样，我们敦促所有客户立即采取措施，为家庭、房屋和企业做好准备。”
