SPP is issuing a Resource Advisory for its entire Balancing Authority effective Monday, July 14, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. CT until an anticipated end time of 9:00 p.m. CT.
- Resource Advisories do not require the public to conserve energy, but are issued to raise awareness of potential threats to reliability among entities responsible for operating transmission and generation facilities.
- This Resource Advisory is being declared due to forecasts of potential high peak loads, potential low output from wind and other variable energy resources (*also known as low VER forecast) leading into peak hours, and possible increase in resource outages.
- Individuals should contact their local utility for details specific to their area.
- SPP generation and transmission operators have been provided instructions on applicable procedures, including reporting any limitations, fuel shortages or concerns.
- To mitigate risks to reliability associated with these factors, SPP may use greater unit commitment notification timeframes, including making commitments before standard day-ahead market procedures and/or committing resources in reliability status.
- SPP will send additional information if necessary.
