Lake Powell, which lies on the Colorado River from northern Arizona to southern Utah, is experiencing a severe drought that could impact electricity production. According to projections, there is a 34% chance that the lake’s Glenn Canyon Dam will be unable to generate hydroelectric power in 2023. The dam produces power that is distributed to nearly 6 million homes and businesses stretching from Nebraska to Nevada.
