Electricity Generated and Purchased in March 2005 (Bulletin)
2005/4/15
FEPC
1. Nationwide Summary
Total electricity generated and purchased in March 2005 was up 4.0% across the ten companies to 81.89 billion kWh. The rise was due to increased demand for heating caused by lower temperatures.
(Breakdown)
Hydro | Flow rates were below those of last year, leading to a decline in hydroelectric generation. 4.99 billion kWh were generated, down 1.3%. |
Thermal | An overall increase in generated and purchased electricity and decreased use of nuclear power led to a 10.1% rise in thermal generation. 42.72 billion kWh were generated. |
Nuclear | The capacity utilization rate at all companies was down compared to last
year, resulting in a 9.3% decline in nuclear power generation. 20.70 billion
kWh were generated. Capacity utilization rates in March 2005 and March 2004 were 62.2% and 71.1% respectively (Japan Atomic Power Company figures excluded). |
2. State of the Companies
Business results at all companies rose due to increased demand for heating caused by lower temperatures.
[Monthly Peak Load]
Combined peak load for the 10 companies was 145.005 million kW (recorded at 11:00, 4 March), up 5.6% on last year.
[Flow Rates]
With the exception of Hokkaido, Tohoku, Hokuriku and Kansai, flow rates at all the companies were above average. As a result, the flow rate across the nine companies was 98.6%.
