> The order allows the state’s grid operator to exceed certain air pollution limits to boost generation amid record power demand in the state. The Electric Reliability Council of Texas, whose service area includes 90% of electric customers in Texas, requested the emergency order Friday, warning it may need to resort to blackouts.
- kencausey 4y agoIn the Tennessee Valley Authority service area, at least in my specific area, we had short periods of intermittent ~15 minutes blackouts. On the 23rd it was for barely an hour and it was 2-3 hours on the 24th. With the slowly rising temperatures it has not been needed today and is not expected to be needed again in the near future.
