ERCOT has issued a Voluntary Conservation Notice for today from 4 p.m. – 8 p.m. due to forecasted extreme temperatures, forecasted record demand, and lower reserves.
This Voluntary Conservation Notice is part of the ERCOT’s Texas Advisory and Notification System (TXANS), alerting the public of grid conditions. Last week, ERCOT issued a Weather Watch from June 15 – June 21 due to increased temperature and high demand.
ERCOT says it is not in emergency operations, and controlled outages are not needed at this time. Texans can monitor current and extended grid conditions, along with other dashboards, on the ERCOT website here.
