Texas Faces Energy Emergencies This Summer, but COVID-19 and Oil Industry Demand are Critical Unknowns

SUGAR LAND--March 31, 2020--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--It's expected to be another tight summer for electricity in Texas, with energy emergencies a distinct possibility, but the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) (Austin, Texas) believes it has adequate generating resources to meet this summer's peak electric load. In its preliminary Seasonal Assessment of Resource Adequacy (SARA), released March 5, the grid operator said this summer's electric demand is expected to peak at 76,696 megawatts (MW), while generating resources are predicted to be 82,417 MW. The reserve margin, about 7%, is about half of what the industry prefers.
