across the ten companies.
Demand Excluding Extra High Voltage Demand
Lighting and Commercial Demand posted increases of 7.0% and 5.9%, respectively.
The increases were due to increased demand for heating caused by lower
temperatures in eastern Japan in the first half of February, and a longer
meter-reading period for Lighting Demand.
