High-voltage power lines saw a temporary surge in electrical current in the area where the deadly Eaton Fire is believed to have started, Southern California Edison said.

Southern California Edison on Monday reported a fault on a power line connected miles away from ones located near the origin of the Eaton Fire, the deadly blaze that ignited outside of Los Angeles on Jan.

A new video suggests the Eaton Fire in Altadena, California was started by a transmission tower. The utility company said there is no evidence to blame for the wildfire.

When a massive fire erupted at one of the world's largest lithium-ion battery storage facilities in Monterey County, it didn't just send a toxic plume of smoke over nearby communities — it cast a shadow of doubt over the future of California's clean energy industry.

Scientists have linked a lithium battery plant fire in California earlier this month to a surge in heavy metals found in nearby soil.
