Mike,
I don't remember seeing that. The 38% spike would seem to indicate that they drew that mush more power than normal from the regular grid, but that is just a guess. The last I heard they were planning on more nuclear and wind powered plants. They have a new vertical turbine out now that the wind turns but it has no propeller so the birds are safe and the environmentalists can't complain abut that. I believe it is 130' tall but will have to verify that. In fact they are talking about putting some of them on Hatchet Mountain which is East of here.
