Sustained heatwave pushes demand toward a first-ever 90 GW week with reserve margins tightening - the 2026 stress case arriving on schedule.

Heatwave-driven river temperatures force reactor shutdowns and curtailment - climate directly cutting power supply during peak demand.

River water warms toward regulatory limits, threatening output cuts at river-cooled plants - the supply side of the same heat shock.

Government sees 94.1-98.8 GW in mid-August - above the 2024 record - and secures 107 GW supply; a cloudy heatwave cutting solar is the stress case.

On the very day Korea peaks, ERCOT sets a new preliminary peak-demand record - two grids an ocean apart stressed by the same summer.

Korean summer demand peaks at an all-time 97.1 GW on 2024-08-20 - the record the 2026 forecast now expects to break.

Texas grid demand tops 85 GW for the first time during a weekslong 100F heat wave; hourly load had never exceeded 80 GW before that summer.
