AUSTIN – ERCOT has issued a Weather Watch from Aug. 6-7 due to forecasted higher temperatures, higher electrical demand, and the potential for lower reserves.
No action is needed because grid conditions are expected to be normal during a Weather Watch.
ERCOT set a new, unofficial August and all-time peak demand record of 83,593 MW Aug. 1. The organization’s Six-day Supply and Demand dashboard is showing the possibility of new all-time peak demand records next week.
