No rolling blackouts are currently planned, but 15,000 Megawatts is currently off-line (1/3 of normal capacity). If there are rolling blackouts, most likely would occur between 4pm and 8pm. CAL-ISO
According to the lastest conference call, CAL-ISO expects to implement 1,500 Megawatts of rolling blackouts this evening between 5pm - 8pm PST in Northern and Southern California. They are still trying to get another power plant back online, but it doesn't appear it will be on line in time. The decision of which neighborhoods to cut will be made by the individual power companies.
