New Winter Peak Demand Record in ERCOT: Grid Roundup #41

A new, non-Uri winter peak demand record was set today, new record likely tomorrow morning; second project out of the Texas Energy Fund, total of 20% of TEF capacity now out.

In this issue:

• Demand exceeded 79,000 megawatts today, new record tomorrow likely: ERCOT currently forecasting over 83,000 megawatts

• Texas Energy Fund has now lost 20% of its capacity as a second project falls out. It likely won’t be the last one to be canceled.

Join me for a live chat about the new peak record and updates from the PUC Open Meeting tomorrow, Thursday, February 20 from 10:00 - 11:00 a.m. CT.
