Power supply is tight, Guangdong starts peak staggering power consumption
2021-05-27
Guangdong Energy Bureau announced on the 21st that due to the accelerated economic recovery and continuous high temperature, Guangdong's electricity demand is rising. The circular said that since the beginning of this year, Guangdong's economy has been recovering and the power demand in the province has maintained a rapid growth. In particular, the demand for electricity in the secondary and tertiary industries continued to be strong. From January to April, electricity consumption increased by 32.2% and 40.2% respectively compared with last year. At the same time, after the end of April, especially since May, the high temperature in Guangdong Province has continued, with a high temperature of 35 ℃, 4 ℃ higher than that in the same period last year“ Under the "barbecue" mode, the power demand is also rising. At present, the highest load demand of the whole province has exceeded the highest load of last year. In addition, due to the fact that Yunnan has not yet entered the flood season and other reasons, the power supply in Western China can not be increased during the period of tight power supply in Guangdong. Under the superposition of multiple factors, there is a shortage of power supply in Guangdong.
