In the context of high demand for power usage in the Northern region due to recent severe hot weather, some power stations are struggling with difficulties and thermal power units being in trouble, including Cam Pha, Thang Long, Quang Ninh, Ninh Binh, Mong Duong 2 with the total non-generating capacity equivalent to about 1,555MW.
In addition, long-lasting severe hot weather may trigger partial problems in the power grid due to overloaded operations in different places.
In order to limit the risks of arising partial problems of power grid along with the explosion in households and balance between the supply and demand on power, EVN proposed people, offices, agencies, and production units to safely and effectively use power, especially on peak time from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and avoid using large-capacity electrical equipment at the same time.
