On July 27, 2023, peak hourly electricity demand in the continental United States reached 741,815 megawatt-hours (MWh).
This peak was the second highest since we began collecting this data in 2016, just under the all-time high of 742,704 MWh recorded on July 20, 2022.demand in the United States typically occurs in either July or August when demand for space cooling is the highest.with little connectivity to each other: the Eastern, Western, and Texas Interconnections.
For example, last summer, temperature differences among the three regions led to differences in the timing and intensity of peak demand as well the ability of grid operators within each region to meet demand. Because hot weather was concentrated in Texas and the western United States, the electric systems in those areas of the country strained to meet higher demand.
An EEA Stage 1 is called when real-time forecasts expect energy deficiencies. Forecasts for high temperatures on July 20 across the Western Interconnection elevated demand in the California, Southwest, and Northwest regions . However sufficient resources were available to meet demand within California on that day without declaring additional staged emergencies or shedding load.
The actual peak hour of this year in the Western Interconnection occurred on August 17, 2023, when demand across the three regions reached 137,370 MWh. Grid operators were able to meet demand without entering into emergency conditions.In the Eastern Interconnection, the largest of the three interconnection regions, hourly demand peaked on July 27, 2023, at 529,147 MWh, the same day that demand peaked for the continental United States.
