In 2023, Entergy New Orleans announced Operation Gridiron, a major grid-hardening plan with roughly $1 billion in investment aimed at reducing outage durations and improving storm resilience over a ten-year horizon, including upgrading thousands of poles and hardening hundreds of miles of lines. The plan was framed as a long-term, community-transparent effort to make the grid more storm-ready; it was under consideration by the New Orleans City Council at that time.[1]

Coverage from independent outlets in 2021–2022 highlighted ongoing debates about grid reliability in New Orleans and Entergy’s broader Louisiana operations, including questions about infrastructure upgrades post-Hurricane Ida and discussions around federal support versus ratepayer funding.
