Electricity Demand in 2003 (Confirmed Report)
2004/4/28
FEPC
[Demand Overview (Total Across the 10 Power Companies)]
Total demand in 2003 was down 0.9% on last year to 834.3 billion kWh across the 10 companies.
(Demand Excluding Extra High Voltage Demand)
- Lighting Demand (down 1.4%, 259.65 billion kWh)
- Commercial Demand (up 0.2%, 162.87 billion kWh)
Relatively mild weather in winter and summer depressed demand for heating and cooling, resulting in a decline of 1.4% in lighting demand. Commercial demand, on the other hand, despite depressed demand for heating and cooling due to the mild weather, was aided by the extra leap-year day in February and posted a rise of 0.2%.
(Reference)
- Large Industrial Demand (up 0.2%, 261.87 billion kWh)
Large industrial user demand in 2003 was up for the second consecutive year, increasing by 0.2%. The rise was due to firm performance in the chemicals, the steel and the machinery sectors, and a longer meter-reading period resulting from the extra leap-year day in February.
