Knoxville, TN (WOKI) The Tennessee Valley Authority is reporting record energy use during frigid temperatures in our area.
Officials say TVA provided over 35,300 megawatts of power at peak demand, beating out last year’s January, 17th record of just over 34,500 megawatts.
TVA and power companies across the region asked customers to hold back on energy usage yesterday morning (Wednesday) to reduce strain on the energy grid. That request has ended.
