The recent heavy snowfall and bitter cold temperatures have led to an unprecedented surge in electricity usage across the Southeast region. The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) has issued a request for customers to be mindful of their power consumption in light of the soaring demand.
TVA is closely monitoring the weather conditions and assures the public that the power system remains stable. The call for conservation is a proactive measure commonly employed in the power industry to alleviate demand during peak periods and does not signify an emergency situation for TVA.
In the event of a power outage, customers are advised to contact their local electric provider for further assistance.
