SECO Energy Recovers from Hurricane Idalia

SECO Energy is recovering from Hurricane Idalia as the storm’s outer rain bands and tropical storm-force winds moved across its Central Florida service area. SECO employees and contracted line and tree crews worked overnight Tuesday into Wednesday through inclement weather to restore service to members affected by power outages. SECO welcomed almost 500 mutual aid crews to aid in the restoration effort. 

 

In the last 24 hours, just over 10,400 members experienced a service interruption due to Hurricane Idalia. As of 12:00 p.m., just over 600 accounts remain out of service. The hurricane made landfall near Keaton Beach at 7:45 a.m., sparing Central Florida from the heaviest winds and most severe damage imposed by the hurricane. Idalia’s wind and rain bands extended into the SECO Energy service territory late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning as it moved north, nearly 100 miles west of Tampa Bay. 

 

The Big Bend of Florida took the brunt of Hurricane Idalia’s Category 3 winds and unprecedented storm surge that pummeled the shoreline from Cedar Key to Horseshoe Beach. Extreme wind warnings were issued to parts of Taylor and Madison County, including the towns of Perry, Steinhatchee, Lee, Madison, Hanson and Pinetta. 

  

CEO Curtis Wynn was grateful for the limited impact Hurricane Idalia had on the not-for-profit electric cooperative’s 230,000+ members and praised the SECO team and mutual aid crews for their preparation. Wynn stated, “Our team was exceptionally well-prepared for Hurricane Idalia and their response was second to none. We caught a break – Hurricane Idalia could have turned east and left us with massive outages and destruction. There is no guarantee with the weather. StormReady means that we prepare for and are ready for emergencies that storms often create. We bring in the appropriate number of outside contractors and, with our own team of employees, apply the appropriate response plan.”

SECO Energy Tracking Hurricane Idalia

SECO Energy continues to track the path of Hurricane Idalia as it moves through the Gulf of Mexico toward the Florida Peninsula. As expected, Idalia strengthened into a hurricane overnight and accelerated its movement north. At 11:00 a.m., the hurricane was positioned 240 miles southwest of Tampa, and its sustained winds were measured at 90 mph. Hurricane Idalia is moving due north at 15 mph and is expected to make landfall near Cedar Key early Wednesday morning. 

 

Probable path of Hurricane IdaliaThe onset of Hurricane Idalia’s winds is projected to be felt in the western SECO Energy service territories of Citrus, Levy, Marion and Sumter Counties this evening. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 15 miles from the center, and tropical storm-force winds extend up to 160 miles. These winds are expected to intensify rapidly overnight and result in a major hurricane by the time it makes landfall on Florida’s Gulf Coast Wednesday morning. 

   

Based on the National Hurricane Center (NHC) forecast, the risk of life-threatening storm surges and tropical storm-force winds along portions of Florida’s west coast is still a concern. The highest surge levels are predicted to fall within 10-15 feet above sea level. SECO Energy members should monitor updates to the forecast and follow advice given by local officials. 

  

SECO Energy members should prepare for outages due to Hurricane Idalia beginning overnight on Tuesday and into early Wednesday morning. If the current track stays in place, Marion County could experience winds between 60 – 70 mph and Citrus, Sumter and Lake Counties could have wind speeds between 40 – 60 mph. High wind speeds and possible flooding and tornadoes may create power outages that last for an extended period of time. 

   

CEO Curtis Wynn repeated his call for vigilance from members in advance of Idalia’s impact. Wynn stated, “SECO Energy is preparing for the effects of Hurricane Idalia. This coordinated, company-wide effort integrates assistance from other energy cooperatives and contractor partners ahead of the storm. Along with SECO Energy’s 80 line crew employees, we expect over 250 contracted line crews and 150 contracted tree service crews. After Hurricane Idalia has cleared our area, if needed, we will bring in additional support from our fellow electric cooperatives that were unaffected by the storm. The unfortunate consequences of power outages from tropical storms and hurricanes are a fact of life, but the duration of these outages is mitigated by the advanced preparations made by our leadership team, dedicated staff, and line technicians.” 

 

Wynn cautioned against complacency, adding, “I want to remind members not to take this storm lightly. High winds and heavy rain will increase the risk of downed power lines and trees. What was an ordinary activity a few days ago could be unsafe after a storm. Take time today to make any last-minute preparations, but if you don’t need to travel, stay home.”  

 

SECO’s priority is to restore service for shelters, hospitals, schools and government agencies (i.e., emergency ops centers, fire stations, law enforcement facilities). SECO Energy members who require electricity for life-sustaining medical equipment should consider relocating to a shelter.

SECO Energy Monitoring Tropical Storm Idalia

SECO Energy is preparing for the weather effects of Tropical Storm Idalia as it targets the Florida Peninsula. The storm is expected to strengthen into a major hurricane before it reaches the Gulf Coast of Florida.  

   

Based on the National Hurricane Center (NHC) forecast, the risk continues to increase for life threatening storm surge and dangerous hurricane force winds along portions of Florida’s west coast and the Florida Panhandle beginning as early as late Tuesday. Storm surge and hurricane watches are in effect for much of Florida’s west coast. SECO Energy members should monitor updates to the forecast and follow advice given by local officials. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has declared a State of Emergency to 46 counties, up from 33 on Saturday. 

  

Tracking Tropical Storm Idalia

The current track of the storm shows that TS Idalia will most likely impact SECO Energy’s service area on Tuesday with rain and increased wind speeds. Outages on SECO’s electric system are possible overnight on Wednesday and into the early morning hours. If the current track stays in place, Marion County could experience winds between 60 – 70 mph and Citrus, Sumter and Lake Counties could have wind speeds between 40 – 60 mph.  

Tropical Storm Idalia 5-day cone

  

As of Monday morning, this storm was moving north over far western Cuba where later today it is expected to impose hurricane-force winds, heavy rainfall, the possibility of flash and urban flooding as well as landslides.   

   

CEO Curtis Wynn urges members to prepare for Tropical Storm Idalia. Wynn stated, “SECO Energy is watching Tropical Storm Idalia closely and preparing for the impacts this storm will have on our service area. While SECO is StormReady and prepared to respond to power outages, I urge members to prepare for major hurricane-force conditions. We expect this storm will impact SECO’s service area by late Tuesday, so now is the time to make safety preparations for your homes and families before its arrival. Still—be safe in efforts to prepare. Exercise caution and patience on the roads and continue to watch weather reports and follow the storm’s track.”

Major weather events can cause extended power outages. SECO Energy reminds members to follow safety protocols when using a generator during a power outage. Generators emit deadly carbon monoxide (CO) that is odorless and colorless. Thousands of people die each year from CO poisoning. Never operate a generator in an enclosed space, including a garage. Always place the generator at least 15 to 20 feet away from your home and never near open windows.  

   

Before operating a generator, thoroughly read and review the owner’s manual. Never plug a generator directly into an electrical outlet. This current flow is deadly for utility personnel. Keep children away from an operating generator and store fuel in approved containers. Do not smoke while fueling a generator. Always operate a generator in a dry space. If it is raining, use a canopy or cover. SECO Energy’s Hurricane Handbook includes generator safety tips and how to prepare for before, during and after a storm.

Beat the Heat – Conserve Energy Warning

SECO Energy is preparing for some of the hottest summer temperatures recorded. For over a month, the heat index or “feels like” temperature has soared into the triple digits in Central Florida. Every day in August the temperature has reached 90 degrees and above, and SECO Energy members have set records several times in recent weeks for the highest usage our cooperative has ever experienced. 

 

Today and for the rest of the week, heat indices in the counties SECO serves are forecast to climb to over 110 degrees. The increased HVAC usage to battle these hot summer temperatures is creating an energy generation shortage.  

 

SECO Energy’s peak times of highest demand are generally between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. During this extremely hot summer, we’ve seen that demand time expand to 12 p.m. and 8 p.m.  

 

We need your help in assisting with grid stability during these hot temperatures. Help us reduce energy demand by conserving.  

 

Ways to reduce energy use:  

  • Set your HVAC temperature to 78 degrees or higher. 
  • Run pool pumps after 7 p.m. 
  • Set electric vehicle (EVs) and golf carts to charge between midnight and 6 a.m.  
  • Curtail household tasks like laundry and running the dishwasher until late evening/early morning 
  • Lower your water heater temperature to 120 degrees and invest in a timer to curtail use between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m.   

 

You’ll save money on your electric bill and help SECO reduce our peak demand (which lowers energy costs for all members).  If you own an electric vehicle, enroll in our incentive rate.  If you want to up your EV charging speed, you can lease or purchase a Level Two Fast Charger from SECO – free installation for a limited time. A 240-volt outlet NEMA 14 50-amp receptacle is required and is the member’s responsibility.  

 

Be assured, we are monitoring the statewide energy shortage and working closely with our wholesale power provider Seminole Electric Cooperative, Inc. to maintain energy reserves. We are taking proactive action with Seminole to ensure that the electric grid remains stable and that system reliability for SECO members is unaffected. You can help by taking the small steps listed above.  

SECO Energy Responds to Truck Meets Pole Incident

The costs that originate from distracted driving accidents are numerous and can often involve injury or loss of life. In cases where human health is not directly impacted, financial burdens can still be significant when vehicles go where they should not be due to operator negligence.

 

On one recent July morning, three SECO Energy poles that supply electricity to residences and two businesses served by the cooperative were destroyed when a heavy vehicle struck guy wires crossing County Road 474 in Clermont. The impact dragged the support wires and pulled the connected poles down, disrupting electric service to 85 members.

 

Although SECO Energy’s power distribution automation system provided near-instantaneous resumption of electricity to 64 members, 21 members remained without power for nearly eight hours as SECO line crews worked through rain and lightning to restore service safely.

 

Distracted Driving Suspected

The cause of the mishap appears to have been a dump truck-type vehicle that was traveling with its equipment in an elevated position as it crossed under SECO Energy’s power lines, ripping energized lines from their supports. Further damage occurred when a second heavy truck followed the incident and struck pieces of the fallen debris. Most disturbing, the drivers of both vehicles left the scene without stopping.

 

SECO utility pole replacementDistracted driving may have accounted for the first vehicle accident. That may have also been the case with the second vehicle that struck the fallen wires as the driver clearly did not recognize the hazard in the roadway ahead and didn’t make the appropriate effort to avoid it.

 

The consequences of the outage were costly for Cemex, a sand mine that lost productivity for much of the day due to the lack of electric service. Crews installed a set of temporary switches to isolate the outage and expedite the restoration for 16 members and E. R. Jahna Industries, another sand mine located off CR 474. Not only was a large commercial account interrupted, but SECO residential members were out of power for a significant amount of time.

 

The SECO facility damage was significant also. Due to driver negligence, SECO spent costly hours repairing power lines, replacing three poles and re-energizing services amid heavy rain and nearby electrical storms. SECO Energy crews replaced all broken poles, repaired lines and restored service to all members affected by the outages by 3:11 p.m.

 

In addition to the loss of revenue associated with power lines torn down by avoidable distracted driving, the risk of injury or even death to line workers is considerable. Public safety is at risk, too; often downed lines remain energized and can kill or significantly injure a member of the public who encounters downed power lines.

 

CEO Wynn Cautions Drivers

Lightning strike during line repairCEO Curtis Wynn is concerned with the number of vehicle accidents that damage SECO Energy facilities. Wynn stated, “SECO Energy crews are trained to perform power restoration in all weather conditions, day or night, rain or shine. Linework is inherently dangerous, but the possibility of injury increases when wind, rain, storms and road traffic are present. With the high number of heavy-duty vehicles on the road for new construction tasks and an increasing number of Florida citizens driving, our local roadways are becoming more dangerous.”

 

Wynn continued, “This is a reminder to limit distractions while driving. Members of the public who notice downed power lines, call 911 immediately. Stay away from downed lines and instruct your family to do the same. Our number one priority is for all of our SECO employees to return home safely to their families at the end of every workday.”

 

It is also important to emphasize the importance of the Florida “Move Over” law requiring motorists to slow down and/or move over one lane for emergency responders. It includes tow trucks, municipal vehicles and utility vehicles. Recently, Governor DeSantis signed a bill that takes effect on January 1, 2024, that requires motorists to slow down and/or move over one lane for all disabled vehicles. Drivers who do not slow down and move over could receive a noncriminal moving violation and be hit with a hefty monetary fine.

July 2023 Sunshine State Stats

In July 2023, both the average high and low temperatures rose from June’s figures. Rainfall increased nearly 24% from the month prior as Central Florida weather continued its steamy path through summer. While tropical storm formation remained quiet, local rain and thunderstorm activity was busy, and measurable precipitation occurred in 17 out of 31 days. After the first five days of July pushed highs at or above 95 degrees with no rain, a seasonal pattern of afternoon storms became more predictable.

 

July Leesburg FL weather stats

 

While the average temperature for July 2023 was 84 degrees (3 degrees higher than last month’s average), there is no denying that the month was boiling hot. There are claims that this may be the hottest month ever recorded. Heat indices soared to 110 degrees in some parts of Central Florida and even reached the 120-degree mark in South Florida and other states. The average high was 92 degrees, while the average low was 75 degrees.

 

With steady temperatures in the hot to boiling range, members’ kilowatt-hour (kWh) usage has likely increased as they utilize their HVAC use to combat rising summer temperatures. HVAC is the largest energy user in Central Florida homes – accounting for 35 to 40% of kWh usage on average. Read August SECO News for advice on a summer HVAC tune up.

 

The highest daily recorded temperature (data from the Leesburg KLEE weather station) in July was 98 degrees and the lowest was 72 – the highest daily recorded temperature in June was 96 degrees and the lowest was 66. July 2023 rainfall totaled 8.28 inches, versus 6.75 inches in June. Precipitation was most active in the second and third weeks.

 

August forecast from The Old Farmer’s Almanac

 

Look for isolated showers and scattered thunderstorms throughout the month and 2” lower-than-average rainfall. Temperatures will begin to moderate toward the end of the month resulting in a projected average temperature of 83 degrees.

 

The Atlantic hurricane season enters its third month, and some storm predictions are shifting. Colorado State University released a mid-season projection that now suggests we may experience an “above-normal season” with 18 named storms, nine of which may become hurricanes, and of those nine, four could becoming major, Category 3,4, 5 storms.

 

Keep your eyes on the tropics for early signs of disturbances that could strengthen and impact Florida. Now is the time to gather your hurricane/emergency supplies. Review our Hurricane Handbook for a list of supplies, and what actions to take before, during and after a storm. Remember, supplies sell out quickly once a storm is forecast to affect our area.

SECO News August 2023

Dear Members,

 

Wynn's Wire

Every day Florida welcomes new residents. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, between April 2020 and July 2022, Florida’s population increased to over 22,200,000, which is a 3.3% increase in just over two years. The four largest counties served by SECO (Citrus, Lake, Marion and Sumter) increased their population during this timeframe between 5.5% and 11.7%. Lake County’s growth increased by 6.8% specifically.

 

New Substations Support Grid Growth

To keep pace with the increasing demand for energy to power the growing number of residences and businesses (both commercial and industrial), SECO Energy maintains its massive electric grid infrastructure regularly for our existing members. It builds new infrastructure where needed for new members.

 

In Lake County, SECO completed the design and construction of a multi-year new substation (named Sawgrass) to meet demand in the County’s increasing population. Much of the population growth has occurred in Clermont, Fruitland Park, Groveland and Minneola.

 

The increasing number of residential new construction and commercial and industrial developments underway in southern Lake County will require a substantial increase in electrical service. SECO Energy has responded with its development of the Sawgrass substation, which is the 49th SECO Energy substation – soon to be 50 with the addition of the new Landstone substation in Sumter County – built to supply members in that area with safe, affordable, reliable energy

 

Sawgrass will help manage the growing load along Lake County’s southern area in conjunction with our current Clermont substation. SECO’s new substation houses the latest technology to provide redundant power sources.

 

Sawgrass substation

Sawgrass utilizes two Duke Energy transmission lines in a looped configuration, creating redundancy that increases reliability for members served from both the Clermont and Sawgrass substations. This design allows crews to restore service to members served by both substations through distribution backfeeding. This redundancy minimizes the impact and length of outages. It supports a new level of robust demand while helping to maintain a resilient grid.

 

As your local not-for-profit electric cooperative, SECO and its hometown team are committed to reducing the number and duration of outages our members experience yearly and keeping pace with a rapidly expanding population. Our investment in state-of-the-art infrastructure is one vital action taken to improve member satisfaction.

 

 

Best regards,

 

Curtis Wynn
Chief Executive Officer

SECO News August 2023 Shut Down Solar Scams

 

The solar industry is particularly robust in Florida. Unfortunately, solar contractors make false claims regarding potential savings, energy production, installation timing, and even SECO Energy’s role in connecting a home solar system to the electrical grid. Don’t believe everything you hear. Scammers will make big promises so they can close the deal.

 

TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS: Solar Scams to Avoid

 

  1. HIGH-PRESSURE SALES TACTICS:

    Don’t believe claims that the price quoted is good for one day only. This high-pressure tactic aims to create a sense of urgency where you’ll sign a contract now and possibly regret it later.

  2. INCENTIVES:

    There is currently a 30% federal tax credit called an Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which reduces the tax amount owed to the federal government. It is not a rebate! Not everyone will benefit nor qualify. A financial advisor or accountant can help determine eligibility – don’t allow a salesperson to mislead you.

  3. OVERSTATED BENEFITS:

    It is utterly false that adding a solar array to your home will eliminate your electric bill. It is false that SECO Energy will send you a check. Another fallacy in most solar scenarios is that your home will have power during a utility outage; without battery storage and a complicated and costly system design, that is not the case. The inverter on a solar system is designed to prevent solar-generated electricity from backfeeding onto the utility grid and injuring a utility worker.

  4. INVESTING IN A SOLAR SYSTEM WILL NOT ELIMINATE YOUR MONTHLY ENERGY BILL:

    We cannot emphasize this point often enough! Solar systems are often not powerful enough to generate the energy needed to power a residence without purchasing energy from the utility. Most members who have invested in a solar array will require utility-supplied power after the sun goes down, on cloudy days, during storms

  5. SOLAR IMPERSONATORS:

    SECO Energy has not contracted with any solar installers – do not fall for sales representatives who misrepresent their relationship with SECO Energy or state that we sent them to your home. Research the company and verify credentials, not just logos. Check websites and call to confirm the installer is a licensed solar contractor. Payment should not be made to individuals, only to a verified solar or finance company. Note that financing a solar system also significantly reduces and may eliminate any return on investment.

  6. UNREALISTIC PRICES:

    Compare at least three quotes from solar energy companies. Focus on product value, credibility of the company and other features – not just cost.

 

READ THE CONTRACT BEFORE SIGNING ANYTHING.

Contact SECO before signing for an unbiased opinion and the requirements of our Interconnection Agreement. Only sign a contract after thoroughly reading and understanding the terms, including promises made by the contractor for system production, buyback, finance terms and more. Pay attention to the terms and conditions and make sure that verbal promises are stated in writing. Beware of “free” solar panel offers; this indicates that the contractor is most likely a scam – solar equipment is not free and is often very expensive.

 

If you’re considering an investment in solar, SECO can help. To learn more or contact us for assistance, visit SECOEnergy.com > Energy Solutions > Is Solar Right for You. Find out if solar is right for you before committing to a sizeable investment that may have a different payback than you envision.

 

SECO News August 2023 AMI Systemwide Deployment Update

SECO Energy has launched a systemwide AMI (advanced metering infrastructure) project expected to span three to four years for full deployment. The AMI meter will provide detailed usage data and other energy-saving tools in SmartHub to help reduce energy consumption and costs for you and SECO Energy.

Our AMI vendor, Honeywell, began upgrading residential meters in July. Contractors carry Honeywell and SECO badges, and vehicles are clearly marked with SECO Authorized Contractor signage.

 

Contractor exchanging meter

In preparation, SECO conducted two pilot projects and has completed system acceptance testing.

The Honeywell AMI meter is certified by Underwriter Laboratories – a leader in safety science, security, quality and regulatory compliance. The meter is highly accurate and offers many benefits, including outage reporting, 15-minute interval readings, bill projection and energy disaggregation to help estimate the energy costs for your appliances and electronics. Once the meter upgrade is complete, you can access energy-usage data through your online SmartHub account. Register today if you don’t already have an account.

 

Contrary to outdated advanced meter myths, the meter can’t view your actual in-home behavior. Its software assesses your home’s load profile. It estimates the usage of electricity items based on average consumer usage and behavior. The meter emits a minuscule amount of cellular/radio frequency and falls well within Federal Communications Commission limitations. Read more about the AMI project at SECOEnergy.com. View our Meter Deployment Map for an estimate of when your area is expected to receive an updated meter. You’ll receive a notification before the meter exchange, and the technician will leave a door hanger with more information about your new benefits.
