Korea's power consumption surge to a record high at 80GW

Is the reserved electricity enough for consumers?

Korea's power consumption broke through the roof at 80.22 million kilowatts at 3 p.m. this Monday. This outstripped another record just two weeks ago of a 78.2 million kilowatts consumption.

The Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy assured consumers that there will be no shortages as it has over 10% of reserved power versus demand, thanks to four power plants that have come online.

Temperature in Seoul hit 29.2 degrees Celsius with a 73% humidity rate. With this, the ministry predicts that power consumption will further jump to 81.7 million kilowatts as temperature is expected to rise higher in August.
