Much of North America may face electricity shortages starting in 2024

According to a recent report by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), over 300 million people in the US and Canada could face electricity shortages between 2024 and 2028. The increasing demand for electricity from the tech industry and the electrification of buildings and vehicles is putting a strain on the power grid. The NERC, which oversees the North American power grid, warned that a majority of regions in both countries will likely have insufficient electricity supply. This could lead to power outages and potential disruptions in the coming years.
