NEC Members: ERCOT has issued a Weather Advisory for Wednesday, May 8, due to unseasonably high temperatures, expected maintenance outages during the spring months, and the potential for lower reserves. Despite these concerns, grid conditions are expected to remain normal during this advisory period.

As ERCOT closely monitors the situation, the organization is committed to employing all available resources to ensure grid reliability. Texans are encouraged to sign up for grid condition notifications through the Texas Advisory and Notification System (TXANS) and to stay informed about real-time and extended grid conditions at ercot.com.

Here's a tip: Reducing electricity consumption during peak demand periods not only saves money but also helps alleviate pressure on the grid. You can find energy-saving tips on the TXANS webpage here, contributing to a more sustainable and reliable electrical system for all.
