MINISTRY of Electricity and Energy will accelerate its shortterm and long-term energy projects amid the power shortage as power supply plays a pivotal role in Myanmar’s economic growth, said U Aung Than Oo, Union Minister for MoEE.
He remarked at the meeting regarding the power
distribution sector, held at No. 27 office of MoEE in Nay Pyi Taw at 10 am on
21 April.
He instructed to make a constructive approach
as people have limited access to energy with the hour shifts due to the load
management.
He addressed minimizing energy
waste, providing adequate electric supply, and collecting meter bills for the
State’s revenue. He added that tree trimming near power lines and warning of
electrocution, evaluation of energy grids, and maintenance of equipment for
sustainable power grids and power distribution are required.
According to the MoEE’s statement
on 20 April, the maximum electric generation was estimated at 2,662.8 MW, and
the demand requirement was 3,550 MW. Power supply fell short of 887.2 MW on 19
April amid peak demand.
