California Summer Electricity Supplies Adequate Despite Gas Storage Outage, CAISO Says

摘要

California's electric grid operator said on Wednesday that summer power supplies should be adequate even after the closure of the state's largest natural gas storage facility in Southern California. The annual analysis by the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) acknowledged that natural gas supplies in the Los Angeles Basin are facing potential curtailments, but peak electricity supplies for the rest of the state are adequate. “The 2016 Summer Loads and Resources Assessment” by CAISO provides an early roadmap for estimating power supply-demand balances.
