14 DAY TRIAL // If you want to do your part to reduce the strain on the power grid through voluntary conservation during heat waves, California Independent System Operator Corporation (ISO) has a free iPhone app for you to download.
ISO Today asks users whether they want to receive grid notifications, including Flex Alerts that signal when they should pitch in to reduce the strain on the power grid through voluntary conservation.
During the peak summer months, when demand for electricity soars, Flex Alerts play a critical role, according to ISO.
So what can the app do for you? Basically, it monitors California ISO real-time power grid conditions and gives you alerts, as well as the ability to track calendar events.
You can view real-time power supply and demand, as well as renewable energy output. It also offers a convenient section where you can add ISO meetings and events to your calendar.
