Alberta s energy grid ran on reserves Wednesday, after multiple factors led to a supply shortage.
At 3:52 p.m. Wednesday, the Alberta Electric System Operator issued a Level 2 alert, meaning that reserves were being used to supply energy requirements and that load management procedures had been implemented. The alert ended at 6:06 p.m. This is due to unplanned generator outages, low wind and a reduction of import capability, the agency said in a post to social media. Supply is tight but still meeting demand.

However, at the annual meeting last week of the city-owned utility, Enmax also faced questions about the longer term the pressure to lower emissions and reach its new net-zero target by 2050.
Chief executive Wayne O’Connor is confident about meeting both challenges, although the long-term target of getting to net-zero emissions will test its ability to adapt as the province’s power sector changes.
“The electricity industry is transforming at a rapid rate and we’re . . . preparing for the critical role that electrification will play in a sustainable future,” O’Connor said at the meeting.
