(MURFREESBORO)  On Saturday (12/24/2022) TVA announced it is initiating ELPC Step 50 of the TVA/TVPPA Load Curtailment Program for a second time.   Under ELCP Step 50, all Local Power Companies (LPC) are required to curtail 10 percent of their load in support of maintaining a stable grid. This is the second day in a row that Step 50 will have been implemented.  Middle Tennessee Electric (MTE) is a local electric distribution cooperative that purchases its power from the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA).
