Blackout fears are growing for 20 million Americans as extreme heat pushes the power grid toward its limits.
The US Department of Energy (DOE) on Sunday authorized the operator serving parts of 17 states to activate idle power sources in an effort to keep the lights on.
The emergency order covers Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri and Montana. It also includes Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Utah and Wyoming.
It is the final step before a Level 3 Energy Emergency Alert, which could trigger rolling blackouts to prevent a wider collapse.
It comes as 40 million Americans face extreme heat warnings, with soaring temperatures and oppressive humidity driving up demand for air conditioning.
National Weather Service's Monday alerts across much of that region forecast temperatures or heat indexes above 100F, with readings reaching 113F to 115F in parts of Louisiana.
Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado and Nebraska were also facing dangerous conditions approaching 110F.

Trump cancels energy projects left and right, nothing new gets approved, spends zero on base infrastructure, cancels energy efficiency programs and goes all-in on mega data centers.
What could go wrong?

Another shot at a broken sea shell. What an accomplishment - 25 years worth, doing the same thing. Over and over again.

I guess no one seems to know how Louisiana's power system works.
Maybe an individual power plant serving a single tiny area could go down, the competing power companies here dont even use each other's lines.
There is 0 risk of cascade failure.
It is 91 degrees here with a 6mph breeze and will be 77 tonight with a 6mph breeze

Yep. Still is. So is the AI that is stressing the grid.
