Rolling blackouts could come to parts of southern Utah this summer. What about other areas?

One cooperative is alerting its customers to the possibility. Other providers aren’t expecting such measures, but the Western power grid is expected to be stressed.

(The Salt Lake Tribune) Deseret Power's Bonanza Power Plant near Vernal is the largest source of electricity for six rural electricity cooperatives. Despite having adequate resources for its customers, Deseret is advising the co-ops that Western demands on power this summer could produce rolling outages.
