Chanute faces winter gas curtailment for electric power
Chanute’s municipal power plant resumed generating electricity on March 14 and meets about full current demand. Natural gas from Cities Service is expected to cover 100 percent through November, with curtailment starting then. If winter temperatures stay normal, gas will drop to 96 percent, and 71 percent if 10 percent below normal. Full 100 percent curtailment is projected December through March, forcing higher reliance on KG&E energy and oil as last resort.
