Flex Your Power Alert!

8/28/2007

The California Independent System Operator (CAISO), charged with managing the electricity grid in California, has issued a Flex Alert for Wednesday, August 29 and Thursday, August 30.

Due to the current hot weather, the demand for electricity is approaching capacity.  As a result, state officials have called a Flex Alert.  It's urgent that you:

- Turn off all unnecessary lights

- If you must use an air conditioner, turn it up to 78 degrees or higher

- Postpone using major appliances until after 7:00 PM

And thanks for Flexing Your Power.
