The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has declared a Weather Watch from Monday, January 15, to Wednesday, January 17, in response to anticipated extreme cold weather throughout the ERCOT region. This decision comes as a precautionary measure due to the expected surge in electrical demand and the potential for lower reserves.
During the ERCOT Weather Watch, grid conditions are anticipated to remain normal, with a 20% chance of precipitation, including rain and/or freezing rain possibilities. Texans are encouraged to stay informed and prepared by signing up for grid condition notifications through the Texas Advisory and Notification System. Additionally, real-time and extended grid conditions can be monitored at ercot.com.
