According to the National Power System Dispatch Center, although the peak capacity of the entire system as of May 28 has not surpassed the peak of late April (47,670 MW, which is also the historical peak to date), the national electricity consumption on May 28 reached a new record peak of 1.0019 billion kWh. "This is the first time in history that the national electricity consumption in a day has exceeded 1 billion kWh," an EVN representative confirmed.
Workers check equipment, ensure safe operation of electrical systems during hot season
According to EVN, the North has been quite hot in recent days but it has not yet reached its peak. Electricity consumption in the North has also increased in both capacity and output but has not yet surpassed the old peak. Electricity consumption in the North is forecast to continue to increase, increasing pressure on electricity supply in the coming time.
To ensure electricity supply during the hot season of 2024, EVN hopes that people and customers will use electricity economically, especially during peak hours (from 11am to 3pm and from 7pm to 11pm). In particular, pay special attention to the reasonable use of air conditioning, only turn on the air conditioner when really necessary, set the temperature at 26-27 degrees Celsius or higher; do not use many high-capacity electrical devices at the same time during peak hours.
