Electricity demand dwindles amid lockdown: official
Tue, 4 May 2021
Demand for electricity has dropped to 1,700MW from 2,000MW in 2019 and has yet to post a significant pick-up even as factories and hotels in designated yellow zones resume business, according to a senior official at the Ministry of Mines and Energy.
Nearly 100 factories have reopened after a short hiatus due to the government s recent lockdown of Phnom Penh and Takmao town, according to a Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training spokesman.
Victor Jona, director-general for Energy, told The Post that to ensure balanced supply and consumption and respond to “economic problems”, a 400MW fuel oil power plant in Kandal province s Lvea Em district could be powered down, as could some of the turbines at hydropower dams.
