When Arizona temperatures rise, electricity demand can climb rapidly as millions of residents and businesses rely on cooling systems to stay comfortable and productive.

To ensure the grid remains reliable during extreme heat, utilities like APS are investing to expand their natural gas power plants. Natural gas infrastructure helps APS respond to those demand surges by providing dependable energy that supports homes, businesses, schools, hospitals, and other essential services across Arizona.
