US Department of Energy Issues Emergency Order to Bolster Power Grid in Midwest The U.S. Department of Energy has issued an emergency order designed to bolster the power grid and avert potential blackouts across the Midwest as energy needs surge with the arrival of summer. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright’s directive focuses on maintaining a secure electricity supply for the region. The order mandates that the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) coordinate closely with Consumers Energy to keep the J.H. Campbell coal-fired power plant in West Olive operational. This plant, with a substantial generating capacity of 1,560 megawatts, was slated for premature decommissioning at the end of May, well before its expected lifespan. “This emergency action is vital to guarantee Michiganders and the broader Midwest maintain essential power generation capacity during a period of high electricity demand,” Secretary Wright explained. He reiterated the administration’s dedication to accessible and dependable energy for American families, particularly given current energy policies that could impact electricity stability and costs. The action, issued by the Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response (CESER), is legally supported by Section 202(c) of the Federal Power Act and aligns with President Trump's declaration of a National Energy Emergency. The overarching goal is to preserve power generation availability within the region, preventing capacity from falling below expected 2024 levels. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) has identified a potential risk of diminished operational reserves within the MISO region as demand peaks. This heightened risk stems from a combination of factors, including the scheduled phasing out of traditional power plants and anticipated limitations in energy supply later in the summer, exacerbated by earlier declines in solar energy production. The focus now is on proactively safeguarding the region’s energy infrastructure to meet the anticipated demands and avoid disruptions.

How can there be a “national energy emergency” when we’re produce more oil and gas than ever? #NationalEnergyEmergency

Donald Trump is going to declare a #nationalenergyemergency today, which will allow him to do away with a variety of environmental regulations, build coal-fired power plants, permit nuke plants unsafely, and more.
