California Facing Largest Power Outages In Its History This Week Amid Record Heatwave
As California struggles to rebound from the coronavirus pandemic, wilting heat and wildfires, it’s facing another dangerous crisis: blackouts.
As temperatures broke records across the state, California energy officials announced the first rolling blackouts in the state since 2001 and warned that the state was bracing for what could be the largest power outage it has ever seen, likely on Monday.
The San Jose Mercury News estimates power outages impacted 1.5 million people in 2001. Given that number, 3.3 million people without power would be at least twice as large.
ISO officials said they were shutting down power to residents to prevent events of an even greater magnitude.
“We avoid demand exceeding supply to ensure there’s not a widespread system collapse,” said ISO Market Policy and Performance VP Mark Rothleder.
