CenterPoint Energy Statement On 1010 N. Weinbach Avenue Investigation

 Evansville – Nov. 1, 2022 – Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with all those affected by the Aug. 10 incident at 1010 N. Weinbach Avenue. We also want to express our appreciation to the Indiana State Fire Marshal, Evansville Fire Department, Evansville Police Department, and all personnel who assisted with the investigation.

Following the incident, CenterPoint Energy conducted various tests on its system and outside the surrounding area in the 1000 block of North Weinbach Avenue, indicating no issues. CenterPoint Energy shared its data and fully cooperated with the Indiana State Fire Marshal and additional agencies in its investigation. The State Fire Marshal’s report released today further supports the company’s findings, determining that an accident inside the house, independent of CenterPoint Energy’s system, was the cause of the incident.

 CenterPoint Energy is committed to protecting our employees, contractors, systems, customers, and the public. Our goal is to deliver electricity and natural gas safely to the communities we serve.
