Unlike consumption, peak over all sectors in 2010 was very close to the CED 2009 statewide projection; although 2010 was a mild weather year overall, a heat storm event(extended heat wave) in September 2010 yielded a relatively high peak. The figure also indicates noncoincident weather‐normalized peak demand in 2011, higherthan the actualtotal since this was a relatively cool year. Growth rates in the forecast period are calculated relative to this weather‐normalized total, which is significantly lowerthan the peakpredicted in CED 2009.
