INFRASTRUCTURE: Urges and requests that Louisiana utilities assess their electric grids for vulnerabilities to ground induced currents

This resolution urges Louisiana electric utilities to evaluate their power grids for vulnerabilities to ground induced currents, which are electrical surges caused by solar storms or nuclear electromagnetic pulses. It specifically requests that the state use updated international standards to model these risks and identify hardware solutions that can block these currents from damaging transformers. The bill also asks state officials to explore federal funding and financial incentives to pay for the necessary grid hardening measures.
