With electricity shortage last year still in mind, people will again experience another electricity shortage in this summer. To prevent sunstroke, we have to operate electric fans and air-conditioners. The demand for electricity this summer will inevitably set a record high. To what degree will the electricity in the city be in shortage?
Donggang Firmware in Xiaying Street, Yinzhou District, is the biggest consumer of electricity in Ningbo. The demand for electricity in a month amounts to over two million kwh. The power cut in recent days annoyed him very much
The General Manager says that they have power cut 4 days in a week, which is really a disaster for them.
Manager Wang estimates that one day of power cut will result in great loss, 20 to 30 thousand Yuan, to be exact. What's more, the power cut will lead to great damage to machines. However, the great loss and the great damage will not be his major concern.
Earning less money will not be a big problem. We will generate electricity by ourselves and will operate machines at night. We believe that we will definitely overcome the current difficulties.
Our reporters in Yinzhou and Cixi also found that many a business encounter the same problem as Donggang Firmware. The information from related electricity department in our city shows that it is the third year for Zhejiang Province to be in electricity shortage. What is different with last year is that this year's electricity shortage is characterized by seasonal shortage. In recent days, the burden over power grid rises to 96 percent. The most serious situation occurred on the second of July. The maxim burden over the restricted power grid rose to 76.8 thousand kw. The restricted line amounted to 447. The loss of electricity due to the restriction of electricity arrive to 5.8 million kwh. Since there is no possibility for electricity department to provide any source of electricity, the situation of supplying electricity in our city will be very serious.. <BR> <BR>Zheng Zhimin, Vice Director of Control Center of Electricity Bureau, tells that there are three peaks in which electricity is most needed. 9-10 AM; 2-4 PM and 21-22 PM. It needs about 1.25 million kwh
