How California avoided rolling blackouts with outage communications

CLIENT: California utilities

USE CASE: Outage management, utilizing EONS

THE CHALLENGE

In the summer of 2022, extreme heat strained California’s energy grid to the point that the California Independent System Operator (ISO) issued its highest-level energy emergency Flex Alert prior to ordering rolling blackouts.

By delivering energy conservation communications prior to a potential load shed event, Convey helped its California utility clients avoid rolling blackouts during a summertime emergency.
