“Be Ready For Potential Rotating Power Outages” – California’s Grid Operator Issues Upgraded Emergency Alert Amid Heat Wave
California’s grid operator on Tuesday issued an upgraded emergency alert begging people to conserve energy amid an unrelenting heat wave.
People were urged to turn off appliances, turn up their thermostats and avoid charging electric vehicles during the peak hours.
Temperatures soared into the triple digits in cities away from the coastline.
Even beach cities are under a heat advisory.
Pacific Gas and Electric said the California grid operator directed utilities “to prepare for possible rotating power outages due to the potential for electricity supply on the larger Western region grid to fall short of the increased demand.”
Californians received text messages warning about the statewide “Flex Alert” between 4 pm – 9 pm.
“Extreme heat continues to stress the power grid. Please conserve energy today after 4 pm to reduce the need for power outages.”
A tracker shows how close California is to overloading the power grid.
