Southern California was spared from any rolling blackouts despite the power grid reaching a record-high demand.
About an hour after reaching the record high, the California Independent System Operator ended the Energy Emergency Alert 3 at about 8 p.m. The alert called for all energy resources to be redirected to the state's power grid to meet the increased demand for electricity. The state's grid operator raised the level three times on Tuesday.
"Consumer conservation played a big part in protecting electric grid reliability. Thank you, California!" tweeted California ISO. "We're heading into the worst part of this heatwave," he said.."And this risk of outages is real and it's immediate. These triple-digit temperatures, throughout much of the state, are leading, not surprisingly, to record demand on the energy grid.""I don't know that there's going to be any excessive political fallout," said GOP consultant Matt Rexroad."But I will say incumbents tend to get blamed.
