Power Grid 2023

[hallett21]

Looks like we got a little hot today.

 

[hallett21]

They’re forecasting 45k MW today.

Record is 52k MW set last year in September. Sure looks like we could break the record again with school back in session.

Ready for the storms. Grid is ready for emergency. Power plants take the storms with ease but the transmission guys could be busy.

Another 4 weeks and the demand drops way off. Grid is solid with capacity factors low with some of the largest power plants. Solar has been hitting above 14,000MWs on a daily basis. News does not care when it is quiet.

Monday-Wednesday were on maintenance restriction. Clearly the grid is maintaining and the sky is not falling

There’s a TikTok YouTube short of all of Biden’s electrical energy people before a congressional hearing.

Not one of those fuckballs had any clue what the average daily electrical draw is in the USA nor even close.

No idea what so ever.

Well over 4 Terawatts.

Grid not even breathing hard this year. 1.5 million electric cars!

 

[TCHB]

This year has been a no news year. 1.5 million Ecars and home solar going in in record numbers! Generation side had very little concerns this year. Time for planned maintenance outage season.

Texas grid seeks more power capacity to avoid winter shortages

The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) sought bids from power producers on Monday to increase its operating reserves by around 3,000 megawatts in case of any unexpected spikes in demand during the upcoming winter season.
