BC Hydro says despite the pressure across the Western grid, it will continue to deliver power to its customers because it has more than enough energy to meet the increased demand.

The mercury spiked above 38 C in at least 11 states in the western United States, causing some power outages. The heat, which comes amid years of drought across the Southwest, has strained power grids in California and Texas and fuelled the spread of wildfires,BC Hydro says unexpected outages in Texas, for example, caused 2.4 million homes to lose power, and in California residents were asked to conserve power to reduce the strain on state’s grid.

“And, unlike some of its neighbours to the south who are experiencing extremely low reservoir levels in some areas, BC Hydro is forecasting normal reservoir levels on average across the province this summer,” BC Hydro said, in a news release Tuesday.
