The UDS has 3 primary power grids:
. . . . . . Eastern Interconnection,
. . . . . . Western Interconnection,and
. . . . . . Electric Reliability Council of Texas, and
. . . very little electricity moves among them.
All over the Iowa countryside,
. . . 4,000 wind turbines, generating
. . . 6,900 megawatts,
But, on cool, windy days, when production is high and local demand is low,
. . . if western states are heating up, and
. . . demand for power is peaking,
. . . too bad.
U.S. Department of Energy,
. . . Is looking at ways to connect them.
