Guangxi suffers the worst power shortage in 20 years

Due to insufficient hydropower output and insufficient installed capacity, the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region suffered the worst power shortage in 20 years.

According to the analysis of dispatching center of Guangxi Power Grid Company, the long-term drought caused a significant decline in the output of hydropower, while the thermal power plant suffered from severe downtime due to lack of coal, coupled with a sharp rise in electricity demand since the summer, which was the main reason for the lack of electricity in the current round.

Zhu Chuanyao, Director of Marketing Department of Guangxi Power Grid Company, stated that as of now, all three major hydropower plants in the upper reaches of Hongshui River have been operating at low water levels, and Longtan Power Plant, Tianshengqiao Power Plant and Yantan Power Plant are close to generating “dead water level”. "The Guangxi hydropower output averages 2.5 million kilowatts, which is 2.5 million kilowatts lower than the 5 million kilowatts in the same period last year."

The coal-fired power plant in Guangxi has a shutdown capacity of 1 million kilowatts due to coal shortage, and the operation of the unit caused by unstable coal quality has reduced power generation by 1 million kilowatts. Currently, the thermal power generation capacity is only 5.5 million kilowatts.

Electricity demand has risen sharply since the beginning of summer, and sustained high temperatures have caused Guangxi’s current air-conditioning load to approach 4 million kilowatts.

The current power gap in Guangxi is between 3.5 and 4 million kilowatts, and the daily power shortage is between 80 million and 90 million kilowatt hours. The power shortage has reached about 30% of the electricity demand.

In view of the current predicament, relevant departments in Guangxi are scrambling to introduce coal sources from all over the country, apply for power supply support in Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, and strengthen the power supply plan management at the core of “guarantee the people's livelihood” to limit high-energy-consuming enterprises and non-energy-consuming enterprises. General industrial electricity, shut down lighting project, and fully protect the people's livelihood needs.
