It’s 70,000 megawatt/hours fwiw.

Generation operators love these outages. Prices go up, plant points follow the money.

The E.I A .has a U.S grid map that shows real time current load on any power grid in the country. Current baseload for MISO is shown at 70 Mgw/hr. Just for yuks I toggled the setting to the past Friday at this time. It was 74 Mgw. Did taking 100k offline in the N.O. area dip the grid by that much- 4 Mgw? And why were they able to handle 74MGW on Friday?
I believe that there is a ratio of what's being produced as well as what's being used. Perhaps there is a production impact somewhere that's not obvious.
Either way, it's going g to be a looooooong summer if today sets the tone. Thankfully it's not that hot.

Minimal to none.
Probably correct but the mereaux plant is fricked.

Utility companies are claiming they received 3 minutes of notice and no notice to regulators
Generator went offline and there wasn’t enough power to support demand so likely not a “planned load shed”

Highly doubtful. Catalyst is probably fricked.
A total shutdown with zero notice or prep is damn near worst case scenario here.
Lol as I posted this the power came back online

It is interesting, to me at least, the areas that are out versus those with no impact.

The amount of people in this thread who can’t read is astounding. This has nothing to do with New Orleans.
Are there people without power in the area?

Well you can read but clearly can’t comprehend

Wait until we have more solar and wind plants. We’ll have these outages a lot.

I have a feeling you aren’t exactly missed by those who know you. Glad you’re happy with the decision you made

Just got an email saying power outage restoration delayed. I’m in Lakeview. Don’t think I’ve ever had power returned by the initial estimated time given

Mandeville back up and running again
