The Electric Reliability Council of Texas is warning Texans about possible rolling blackouts this summer.

The state’s power grid operator projects demand will get close to the available supply and could force outages to protect the whole grid.In a report released this past Friday, ERCOT said there’s up to a 16% chance of an Energy Emergency Alert at some point in August. There’s also a 12% chance Texans will have to be without power afterward.The risks are highest around 9 p.m. when solar generation drops off, but people are home running their air conditioners.

"When you couple all of that together there’s an explosively high electric growth demand picture ahead of us that is really pushing us to rethink how we do planning here at ERCOT," he said.Mark Bell with the Association of Electric Companies in Texas said its members have been working with ERCOT and other entities on reliability, especially given the state's growth and an active hurricane forecast for this summer.
