The power supply lost due to unplanned outages of power plants this week reached 1,811 megawatts or more than double compared with the average in the last four years, the Department of Energy said Friday.
Lotilla, for his part, said the DOE cannot predict the worst case of power supply lost due to forced outages because the performance of power plants is also dependent on the demand.“We cannot predict that the high temperatures will persist over a long period of time. It is not only the power plants’ performance that is affected. It is also the of peak demand . And the highest peak demand this year occurred last April 17, and before that, April 12,” Lotilla said.
