Wildfire mitigation begins with understanding your grid’s exposure to ignition risk. gridFIRM, powered by Aspen, models how and where utility assets contribute to wildfire vulnerability—especially during high-risk conditions like heat, drought, and wind.
As wildfire patterns shift, gridFIRM uses historical trends and high-resolution climate data to forecast future risk and prioritize long-term investments.
With gridFIRM, utilities can proactively manage wildfire exposure, protect communities, and invest in the right mitigation strategies—before the next event strikes.
