Hearings planned on power transfer to drought-hit north
Sacramento energy officials plan hearings to decide if Southern California power plants can supply Northern California this summer amid drought. Commission member Emilio Varanini III said idle southern facilities could help offset reduced hydro power, noting Scattergood and others are unavailable due to fuel and pollution limits. The panel will assess how much power can be diverted and what steps are needed. About 25 percent of California’s power comes from hydro in a normal year.
