Under the energy-saving program 2014, Khanh Hoa Power Company (KHPC) has run many practical programs, including an energy-saving week on April 20-27, according to Nguyen Kim Hoang, KHPC Vice Director.

Successive hot days have left water levels at hydroelectric lakes lower than the average compared with previous years while the electricity consumption capacity is expected to increase by 12%, thus leading to possible lack of electricity supply.

To tackle the problem, the company has reported to Khanh Hoa Department of Industry & Trade and Khanh Hoa Provincial People’s Committee on the estimation of additional charge, capacity balance and detailed schemes in case of electricity shortage.

To prevent power load decrease due to energy shortage, saving electricity is considered as the top effective solution. Therefore, KHPC has made the electricity–saving plan, including the electricity saving week.

How has the electricity-saving week implemented?

The company has held activities to draw attention of local people to the issue. Specifically, our website has been added with practical information to help all people take action to save electricity. Efficient products, including solar-powered ones, are encouraged.

Especially, the highlight of the week will be a parade at 7:00 on April 25 winding its way along main streets in Nha Trang City with the participation of Youth Union members.

The week is designed to raise public awareness of energy-saving strategies.
