Demand Overview (Total across the 10 Power Companies)
o Demand for electricity in July was up 6.8% on the same month the previous
year to 72.72 billion kWh.
o Demand Excluding Extra High Voltage Demand
Lighting Demand (up 8.6%, 20.00 billion kWh)
Commercial Demand (up 6.8%, 14.48 billion kWh)
Commercial and lighting demand posted increases of 8.6% and 6.8%, respectively.
The increases were due to higher temperatures from late June to mid July.
(Reference) Large Industrial Demand
Demand from large industrial users was up for the twelfth consecutive month,
rising by 5.2% to 23.84 billion kWh.
