Environment & Sustainability

Trees are an important part of the environment that beautify our neighborhoods and communities, but trees planted too close to power lines can become a hazard and contribute to power outages. With a little planning and proper maintenance, trees and power lines can safely co-exist. Find information from AES about what kind of trees to plant and where.
