New winter record set for single-day power consumption (second time this winter)

Customers used 470,630,000 kWh of electricity yesterday (0:00 to 24:00, December 20), setting a new record for power consumed over a single day. The previous record was set on December 13, 2005.

We believe this record consumption is attributable to the influx of an unusually cold winter air mass, which has led to low temperatures and high-capacity operation of numerous heating systems.
