Summer heat could challenge power grids in Texas and California - North American Electric Reliability Corp
- Texas and California could face electric reliability issues this summer because they may not have enough generation resources available to meet peak air conditioning demand, according to a report from the country’s reliability coordinator on Tuesday.
The rest of the United States was expected to have enough generation to meet this summer’s projected peak power demand, the North American Electric Reliability Corp said in its 2019 Summer Reliability Assessment. One megawatt can power about 1,000 U.S. homes on average but much fewer during the summer months when demand peaks.
In California, NERC said the high concentration of solar-powered generators could pose problems for other forms of generation, which must quickly ramp up or ramp down to ensure overall electric supply closely matches demand.
