Chubu Electric Power Co., Inc.
The volume of electricity sales rose 1.0% from the previous year to 64,733,000,000 kWh-a record high for half-year electricity sales.
1. Demand for electricity other than extra high-voltage power services (i.e., general residential consumption): down 0.3% from the previous year
(1) Lighting services
Although use of air-conditioning equipment declined from the previous year due to a cooler July, factors including growing numbers of client contracts led to an overall increase of 0.9% from the previous year.
(2) Power services
Factors such as declining contract numbers and lower use of low-voltage power for air-conditioning equipment due to lower temperatures led to a 4.8% drop from the previous year.
2. Demand for extra high-voltage power services: Increased by 1.5% from the previous year
(1) Commercial use (clients including office buildings, department stores, and hotels)
Although use of air-conditioning equipment declined due to cooler weather, heightened activity at commercial facilities and other clients led to growth of 2.5% from the previous year.
(2) Industrial and other uses (plant clients)
Factors including booming business for industries such as steelmaking and machinery led to growth of 1.2% from the previous year.
