The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has issued another appeal to Texans and businesses to conserve energy.
Starting at 2 o’clock Wednesday and continuing until 9 p.m. the energy provider is asking everyone to voluntarily reduce their energy usage. Today’s conditions are expected to be similar to those on Monday when many people responded to the request and reduced energy usage by 500 Megawatts
Currently, no system-wide outages are expected and conservation is a reliability tool ERCOT has deployed more than four dozen times since 2008 to successfully manage grid operations. This notification is issued when projected reserves may fall below 2300 MW for 30 minutes or more.
