Affected by the continuous high temperature, the electricity load in many places across the country has recently reached an all-time high. The head of the China Federation of Electric Power Enterprises said yesterday (June 28) that the overall balance of national power supply and demand is tight in some areas during the peak period of power consumption. Yang Kun, executive vice chairman of the China Federation of Electric Power Enterprises, said that new energy generation has gradually become an important part of China's power supply. From January to May, it accounts for 40.6% of the total power generation, which provides a more and more important support for the power balance of the system.
