Why are they having trouble yesterday and today with keeping up demand when so many in the Baton Rouge area is without power? I do not understand why other than just greed of a private business

Wait, are they actually doing rolling blackouts in Baton Rouge?

Yes they are. Yesterday with no warning but today they gave 30 min warning before hand

DEMCO here in Ascension and our lights only flickered a couple times on Monday but that’s it.

My power randomly went off just after 7 yesterday evening. Came back on after about an hour and a half or two hours.

And also different, after they flickered on Monday morning, the lights went out and the party was over.
51° in the bedroom at the moment. Thankfully I feel very little because I’m numb all over.
Maybe tomorrow will be my lucky day.

Incompetence might be the accusation, but cutting the power to thousands of paying customers means they’ll be losing money.

So they can justify charging us triple come summer

You didn’t think JBE was going to miss out on that federal money, did you?

They know what is best for you. Just accept it.

That would have seemed like a batshit insane statement a few years ago.
The ratchet effect is real.

They'll make up for it with the rate increase

I’ll pay more just leave my power alone

Yes, ironically they started with the heavy dem areas. They don’t pay their bills anyway so...

They are cutting power tonight? I know they did last night. Entergy was told by their regional operator to do so, it wasn't their call. You do know the power system in BR is connected to a larger system, right?
