NERC hasn't yet issued its annual Winter Reliability Assessment, but it's clear that it is concerned about the electric industry’s readiness for severe weather.

Gov. Gavin Newsom proclaimed a state of emergency to increase energy production and reduce demand in response to a heat wave hitting California.

Forecasters say California and the Southwest will see extreme heat this weekend, with conditions like those that strained the grid over Labor Day weekend 2020.
