WOW! Friday and Saturday shattered the previous APS power usage records.
According to Arizona Public Service , its customers broke a previous power usage record on Friday, breaking a record set in July 2020. More than 1.3 million homes and businesses in 11 counties are served by APS.
APS officials say multiple factors lead to an increase in power usage including humidity, more people/businesses moving to our state, and of course, temperatures. For the entire month of July, Phoenix-area high temperatures have been at 110 degrees or above, with temperatures reaching 114-116 degrees from Friday to Sunday, according to National Weather Service/National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data.Videos in the player above highlight ABC15's coverage of this summer's unrelenting heat wave.
