Electricity Generated and Purchased in December 2004 (Bulletin)
2005/1/17
FEPC
1. Nationwide Summary
Total electricity generated and purchased in December 2004 was up 0.1% across the ten companies to 79.34 billion kWh. The rise was due to increased large industrial user demand.
(Breakdown)
Hydro | Flow rates were below those of last year, leading to a decline in hydro power generation. 4.91 billion kWh were generated, down 9.7%. |
Thermal | Increased use of nuclear power led to a 1.6% decline in thermal generation. 38.12 billion kWh were generated. |
Nuclear | The capacity utilization rate at all companies
was up compared to last year, resulting in an
8.9% rise in nuclear power generation. 22.52 billion
kWh were generated. Capacity utilization rates in 2004 and 2003 were 67.7% and 64.5% respectively (Japan Atomic Power Company figures excluded). |
2. State of the Companies
Business results in Hokkaido, Tohoku, Hokuriku Chugoku and Okinawa rose due to increased demand for heating caused by lower temperatures in Northern Japan, and bullish industrial user demand. Those in the rest of the companies, however, declined due to decreased demand for heating caused by higher temperatures.
[Monthly Peak Load]
Combined peak load for the 10 companies was 136.473 million kWh (recorded at 18:00, 24 December), down 3.1% on last year.
[Flow Rates]
Flow rates at all the companies were above average. As a result, the flow rate across the nine companies was 122.0%.
