The company has been working to undertake equipment inspections, repairs and replacements, preventative maintenance and reinforcement projects along its infrastructure since 2010. More than 400 miles of gas mains and more than 63,000 service pipes connecting customers to the gas system will be achieved by the end of 2023, while BGE predicted its $1.6 billion of investment into electric will lead to inspections of more than 4,5000 circuit miles of power lines and more than 40,000 utility poles this year.
