Oncor Electric Delivery

Supporting our local frontline men and women is one of the many ways our employees give back to and serve Texas. Today Oncor Cares Foundation announced its most recent investment in Texas communities: $650,000 to support critical training and equipment for 26 fire departments across West and Northwest Texas. We send a Texas-sized thank you to the men and women of these and all emergency and frontline teams for being the backbone of our communities. "At Oncor, we are constantly searching for opportunities to prioritize safety and support our safety partners who work hand-in-hand with us to serve Texas communities. We recognize and appreciate the life-saving role of our volunteer firefighters and are honored to provide these 26 departments with funds to secure high-quality firefighting equipment and additional training,” said Debbie Dennis; Senior Vice President, Chief Customer Officer, Chief HR Officer for Oncor, and Chairman and President of the Oncor Cares Foundation. “Maintaining strong partnerships with first responders like these across our service area is incredibly important to Oncor and all of our team members. We’re excited to see the impact this gift has on each volunteer fire department, and look forward to continuing to support their mission of protecting local families, homes and businesses.”

In August, our Ask Oncor team is on the road to join the Empowering Seniors Expo in Forth Worth. If you live in or near these communities, come out to meet your local Oncor representatives and learn about energy efficiency tips for your home, electrical safety information and receive free giveaways.

💡 While electricity runs through thousands of miles of power lines across our state, it is our exceptional people who truly empower Oncor.

At Oncor, careers aren't simply jobs — they are challenging, rewarding, and purpose-driven pursuits. We thank all our interns past, present, and future for their work and contributions alongside our teams as they work to become the next generation of energy professionals.

Since our founding in 1912 to our role today as a 21st-century energy innovator, serving our customers day and night is at heart of what we do. Our work to power the Lone Star State wouldn't be possible without our incredible, hard-working linemen & field teams. Linemen are our employees out in your community who install and maintain power lines. You've probably seen them in roadways or alleys in your neighborhood, wearing protective equipment like safety footwear, gloves, and fire-resistant clothing to keep them safe. No two days are the same for a lineman, and they are trained to respond to whatever maintenance needs their communities may have — rain or shine, day or night. #thankalineman
