Mandatory power cuts begin Friday in Indiana and Michigan
The long anticipated mandatory curtailment at Indiana and Michigan Electric Co will take effect Friday due to cold weather and lagging voluntary conservation. Delco Remy plans 25 percent production cutbacks with about 1,000 layoffs for one day Monday amid varying plant curtailments. Residential users face 15 percent cuts and large industrial users face a 10 cent per kilowatt hour penalty if curtailment limits are exceeded. Michigan customers will be spared for now due to a power loan agreement.
