The statistic represents the electric noncoincident summer peak load for the Western Electricity Coordinating Council in the United States between 1999 and 2015. In 2014, WECC had a noncoincident summer peak load of around 127 gigawatts.
Electric noncoincident summer peak load for the U.S. WECC* region from 1990 to 2015
(in megawatts)
WECC was renamed from WSCC in 2002. The summer peak period is June through September. Noncoincident peak load is the sum of two or more peak loads on individual systems that do not occur at the same time interval. Totals may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding. The abbreviation WECC stands for Western Electricity Coordinating Council. WECC's territory extends from Canada to Mexico, including the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia, the northern portion of Baja California, Mexico, and all or portions of the 14 Western states between. Data include the U.S. portion of NERC only.
