Sixty-one percent of Winthrop's housing was built before 1939 and only 2.4% since 2000, and 42% of units sit in two- to four-family buildings — which normally means several meters and several panels behind one address. National Grid is the electric distribution company. In the roughly 45% of the town that lies in the 1% annual chance flood zone, the Town's own mitigation work has involved elevating electrical lines alongside gas and heating lines, and the current hazard mitigation plan carries actions for a utility elevation project in the flood hazard area and for ensuring electrical utilities are properly maintained.

Winthrop's hazard mitigation plan lists "Complete utility elevation project in flood hazard area" and "Ensure electrical utilities are properly maintained" among its mitigation actions; the Town has previously flood-proofed 17 repetitive loss properties "including the elevation of gas, electrical and heating lines."
Relocating panels and service equipment above flood level is an established, town-endorsed practice in Winthrop rather than an unusual request.
National Grid is the local distribution company; Winthrop Community Electricity is a supply-only municipal aggregation whose plan received full DPU approval on September 23, 2024, with the Town Council having voted to initiate municipal aggregation in February 2023.
Many residents are now enrolled in a town supply program and may be unclear who handles service upgrades, meter work and outages — all of which remain National Grid.
Approximately 45% of Winthrop lies within the 1% annual chance flood zone under the FEMA FIRMs effective March 16, 2016, and the Town's 2026 Hazard Mitigation Plan counts 153 Repetitive Loss properties plus 11 Severe Repetitive Loss properties (164 in total) in Winthrop.
Panel and service equipment location relative to base flood elevation is a live issue for a large share of Winthrop addresses, and repeat-loss properties in particular.
