ERCOT STILL SPURRING ENERGY PRESERVATION TODAY


ERCOT STILL SPURRING ENERGY PRESERVATION TODAY: News expels aside the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT):
 ERCOT urged all consumers can reduce their energy consumption to do right now. Severe weather led to the loss of more than 50 production units - more than VII, thousand MW, and additional wholes are staying to trip offline due to extreme cold temperatures. ERCOT Grid Operations asked the utilities or transportation providers to implement the fault running until the accuse is debased by saving and restoration of production units. Conservation is very critical at present to reduce the load on the system.

Rotating blackouts are controlled; temporary interruptions of electricity service initiated by each household in reserve power supplies are exhausted. Without this safety valve, overload and generator starts closing to avoid damage, risk a domino effect of failure of the state.

At noon, 2000 W. failures rotation was restored, and 2000 MW remains under rotating outages.

Merged megawatt is about decorous to power 200 homes in distant temperatures.

By mid-morning update:

Close night, around midnight, the ERCOT source grid began experiencing many forced outages of production due to cold weather. Beginning at 9 am, more than 7,000 MW of capacity was still off or not producing at its expected level.

Rotating blackouts were implemented around 5:30 this morning to the 4000 MW of load. Rotating blackouts continue in that time, although the amount was reduced to about 3000 MW.

We expect outages to continue rolling until a sufficient quantity of production is back online. We continue to call for energy conservation.

Updates will be provided when different information is available.

These measures will help reduce electricity consumption:

* Limit consumption of electricity for only the consumption which is absolutely necessary. Turn off all unnecessary lights, appliances, electrical and electronic equipment.

* Clienteles had better minimize the operate of electric lighting and electricity-consuming equipment whenever possible.

* Large electricity consumers should consider closing or reducing non-essential production processes.
