NERC finds most U.S. generators prepared for extreme cold

NERC reported that about 94% of bulk power system capacity can operate below 32 degrees and must implement protective measures, while units making up 4.3% of capacity are implementing corrective action plans. About 7.4% of capacity declared a constraint, and 99% of the 1,154,231 MW of reported net winter capacity said it could operate at calculated extreme cold temperatures.
