(WFSB) – Power grid operator ISO New England is warning there could be blackouts or controlled outages if we get severe cold weather this season.
It all has to do with the natural gas shortages and the supply chain issues we are seeing globally.
If the weather stays like we have been experiencing recently, then they will have enough electricity for New England, but if several cold days come, they might not have enough energy to distribute to companies, like Eversource and United Illuminating.
ISO officials say New England is very dependent on natural gas for the creation of electricity.
These outages could leave a lot of us with no heat.
