Summary

A massive warehouse fire in Boyle Heights, sparked possibly during solar panel testing, destroyed half the facility while leaving Altus Power’s solar array untouched—raising questions about responsibility. Four Pearce Services employees were on-site when the blaze began, though their exact role remains unclear. Lineage, the warehouse operator, publicly blamed Altus and called for accountability, citing a prior solar-related fire in 2024. The solar system, which sold power to the city, hadn’t generated revenue since 2024. California’s OSHA is now investigating both companies, and Councilwoman Ysabel Jurado vows to push for an independent probe, insisting community needs answers—not corporate statements.
