NEW YORK - Electric utilities serving the 60 million residents of the U.S. Northeast took steps this week to cut energy use as a sweltering heat wave and near record air conditioning demand strained the power grid.
A similar program is used for business customers in which a utility pays a company for cutting its energy use or generating its own electricity using on-site generators.
In addition, heavy industrial users like steel mills and chemical plants can buy their power at reduced rates on the understanding the local utility can cut their service if the grid is struggling to keep up with demand.

But, as officials at New York City's utility, Consolidated Edison Inc., have said, the loss of a major transmission line or power plant during a heat wave could lead to short-term, localized brownouts or flouts, especially when power supplies are tight.
Residents of metropolitan New York are expected to use the most energy this week and Thursday when meteorologists forecast temperatures would reach between 92 F and 96 F and the heat index, which combines the effect of the heat and humidity, will make it feel like more than 100 F degrees.
