For a second consecutive day Russia has set records for energy
consumption. Today at 10:00 another maximum electric power consumption
was recorded- 156.402 GWh, 66 MW higher than the recorded maximum.
A new record was set in Moscow - just before 18:00 at an average daily
temperature of -17.1 the power consumption of Moscow Energy was
102 MW higher than Tuesday's record, reaching 17,694 MW.
The main reason for the increase of power consumption was, of course,
the unusually cold December, as the average monthly temperature was
9.6 degrees lower than the norm.
