New record winter system peak load (second for this winter)

December 19, 2005
Chubu Electric Power Co., Inc.

At 18:00 today, the power supplied by Chubu Electric Power reached a record 23,530,000 kW, breaking the previous winter system peak load record set on December 13, 2005.


We believe this heightened demand is attributable to greater use of heating systems, prompted by low daytime temperatures caused by the influx of an unusually cold winter air mass.


* System peak load at 18:00 refers to electricity consumed between 17:00 and 18:00.


  • Winter system peak load: 23,530,000 kW
