British Reuters article on June 20, original title: With the heat waves to bake in North China City, China's power demand set a new record. Because the temperature is higher than the same period, the electricity consumption in the north of the Yangtze River in China has increased, including the country's population in the country's population. Within the three major provinces, some areas are facing a record of creating power demand. In Henan with a population nearly 100 million, the highest electricity load on the 19th on the 19th reached 65.34 million kilowatts. With the rise of temperature, China's power demand will also rise, because families and businesses have turned on air -conditioning equipment, and the annual electricity consumption of this country often reaches its peak at the end of July and early August.

In recent days, the temperature of Zhengzhou, Henan Provincial Capital, has reached 40 ° C. In contrast to the largest rainfall in the past 60 years, Henan, Shandong, Hebei and other provinces have been fighting high temperature and drought this month.

In Jiangsu, the fourth largest province in China, the first local maximum power load on June 17 exceeded 100 million kilowatts this summer, 19 days earlier than 2021. Continuous high temperature may force China to restrict industrial electricity during the peak of electricity consumption, or implement measures and quota power measures.
