SUMMER ENERGY CONSUMPTION RECORD BROKEN
FortisBC set a record last week for summer peak electricity demand in the Okanagan region, reaching a high of 406 megawatts between 5 and 6 p.m. on July 27.
“It’s a flag for us, to realize we need to conserve energy at all times, even through the summer,” said Jodie Foster Sexsmith, communications and media relations advisor from FortisBC.
