- Manuel_D 5y agoI'm seeing it peak around the evening in all time zones. This is the link to the actual energy grid visualization tool: https://www.eia.gov/electricity/gridmonitor/expanded-view/electric_overview/US48/US48/ElectricityOverview-2/edit https://www.eia.gov/electricity/gridmonitor/expanded-view/el... Browsing the last day's energy usage yields peaks at: Eastern: 8pm Central: 7pm Mountain 6pm Pacific: 5pm
