PJM Interconnection Forecasts Record Winter Electricity Demand as Transmission Congestion Surges

PJM Interconnection expects a record 148 gigawatts of demand on Friday while transmission line congestion drives prices higher and increases grid stress.

洞察:
PJM Interconnection has forecasted that electricity demand will rise to 148 gigawatts on Friday, setting a predicted all-time winter record for the regional grid operator. The surge comes as the US USUSfaces extreme winter weather, with PJM expecting more than 1,400 high-voltage lines to face restrictions on Thursday. These disruptions are projected to last an average of nearly 13 hours, significantly straining the system that manages power for 67 million people across 13 Midwest and Mid-Atlantic states as well as Washington, D.C.
