Due to the increasing electricity load, there has been a “wave of electricity curtailment” in many places across the country recently.
In the past few weeks, the Zhejiang Provincial Energy Bureau issued a power-saving proposal. It is advocating that enterprises in the province use electricity off-peak. The city’s electricity supply and demand situation are tense this summer. We advocate industrial enterprises stagger and avoid peak power supply through planned maintenance and other methods. And actively support the relief of power supply pressure during peak hours. “Let electricity be used by the people” became hot words.
The “power curtailment wave” has had a considerable impact on the production of industrial enterprises in many places, and the steel industry is no exception. This makes many market participants worry about whether it will cause an imbalance between supply and demand. It will affect the stable operation of the industrial chain and supply chain.
On August 14, the Sichuan Electric Power Company made it clear that due to the further intensification of the current situation of power supply and demand tension. In order to ensure the safety of the Sichuan power grid, ensure the power consumption of people’s livelihood. And ensure that there is no “power cut-off” phenomenon, all industrial power users in Sichuan will implement production Full stop, high-temperature holiday. According to industry statistics, one of the two pig iron enterprises in Sichuan completely stopped production on August 15. Due to the influence of the local power curtailment policy. Due to self-generated power, normal production can be basically maintained. But this round of power curtailment will still affect its average daily output of pig iron of 8,000 tons.
