Continued record electric demand, 13 GW of thermal outages and reduced renewable production forced ERCOT to again issue a conservation appeal.

SPP set a new mark for peak demand July 11, wiping out a record that was less than a week old when the system met load of 51.4 GW.

ERCOT flirted with potential disaster July 11 after saying it was short on capacity, but system demand was reduced enough to keep the lights on.

SPP has set a new record by meeting 51.1 GW of demand amid extreme heat and weather advisories in its Great Plains footprint.

The heat is back on in Texas after a brief respite, with ERCOT again setting records as peak demand reaches the extreme levels of ISO's predictions.

ERCOT's record peak of 74.8 GW could be broken this week as above-normal temperatures continue to bake Texas.

SPP expects to have enough generating capacity to meet regional demand this summer, but it has already issued the season's first resource advisory.

Hot weather that one weatherman called “categorically insane” has settled over Texas and led ERCOT to call on generators to postpone planned outages.

NPCC predicted adequate resources to meet the needs of customers this summer, despite drops in capacity and a rise in expected demand since 2021.

Con Ed reported to the New York PSC that its demand response programs increased slightly in megawatt value last year but dramatically in enrollment.
