This tells how much Californians are really conserving power (not much). Stage Two Electrical Emergency Issued by California ISO FOLSOM, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 20, 2000--The California Independent System Operator (California ISO) declared a Stage Two Electrical Emergency today, Wednesday, December 20, 2000, from 2:15 p.m. until midnight. For several days now, grid operators at the California ISO have been dealing with limited transmission capacity on Path 15, a group of high-voltage power lines that feed electricity back and forth between Northern and Southern California. A traffic jam of sorts occurs on Path 15 when demand for power in the northern end of the state draws generation supply from Southern California to the point the power lines approach and sometimes exceed transmission capacity.
