Under high temperatures, the national electricity load continues to grow. Since the beginning of this year, the highest national electricity load has set a new record four times in a row. In response to the surge in electricity demand, relevant departments are dynamically adjusting and promoting various power sources such as "hydro, thermal, wind, and solar energy storage" to ensure the supply of electricity. As the largest environmentally friendly thermal power plant in the southwest region, the Huaneng Luohuang Power Plant has generated more than 2 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity since June. In Jinan, Shandong Province, the power supply department is strengthening the operation of the power grid. The head of the Huangtai Power Plant told reporters that in response to the continuing high temperatures, the power plant has strengthened coal reserves in advance, and currently the coal reserves can last for over 20 days.
