Renewable energy dependence could lead to rolling blackouts in Michigan this summer

Power outages could plague Michigan residents as grid operators attempt to switch over to renewable sources of energy this summer.
Trotter's concerns come after the Midcontinent Independent System Operator's seasonal assessment found "capacity shortfalls in both the north and central regions of MISO… leaving those areas at increased risk of temporary, controlled outages to preserve the integrity of the bulk electric system," JT Smith, the MISO executive director, told NPR earlier this week.
That reality could lead to controlled outages in Michigan this summer, a step MISO said has never been taken in the state before.
