A power company divides the geographic regions it serves into grids. The company is able to allocate the power it generates based on the usage and needs of a particular grid. Certain grids use more power at certain times of the day, so companies often shift power around to different grids at various times. On any given day, the company makes several changes in the power allocation to Grid 1. First, it increases the power by \( 20 \% \). Then, it decreases it by \( 10 \% \). Finally, it increases it by \( 30 \% \). What is the net percent increase in this grid's power allocation? Round to the nearest whole percent and ignore the percent sign when entering your answer.
