California's grid operator is asking residents not to charge their EVs a few days after the state announced a ban on gasoline-powered cars in 2035.
The California Independent System Operator , an independent power grid operator, asked Golden State residents to voluntarily conserve energy between 4:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. during the three-day weekend. It explained that a looming heat wave is expected to strain the grid through September 6, 2022, and it expects that the peak load for electricity will exceed 48,000 megawatts on Labor Day.
Californians need to take three steps to save electricity: set their thermostats to 78 degrees or higher, avoid using large appliances and charging, and turn off unnecessary lights. California ISO added that residents will reduce the risk of more drastic measures, like rotating power outages, if they follow these guidelines. It also noted that motorists who drive an electric car can charge it before 4:00 p.m.
