San Bernardino County Fire, in partnership with Tesla, hosted a West Coast training event designed to prepare first responders for the evolving challenges presented by modern energy systems. Over the course of two days, fire and law enforcement agencies, public safety stakeholders, and towing professionals from across the region gathered at the San Bernardino Regional Emergency Training Center to engage in hands-on training with Tesla’s suite of energy and vehicle products.
Participants explored Tesla’s ecosystem firsthand, including its electric vehicles, Megapack, Powerwall, solar systems, and Supercharger infrastructure. Tesla engineers and product teams were on site to demonstrate current and next-generation products while facilitating discussions on responder and public safety.
“Tesla reached out and said they wanted to bring in their engineers, their teams, and actual Tesla products, not just what’s on the road today, but what’s coming tomorrow,” said County Fire Chief Dan Munsey. “This training gave our firefighters a chance to engage directly with the technology, ask the tough safety questions, and talk through the best ways to keep both responders and the public safe as the renewable energy industry continues to grow.”
