Jordan- Power load reaches 3,010 megawatts as heat wave blasts Kingdom


(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency) Amman, Sept. 11 (Petra) -- An out-of-season heat wave pushed the load on the national power grid to 3,010 megawatts Monday compared with about 2,980 megawatts recorded yesterday.

Deputy director of operation and planning at the National Electric Power company, Amin al-Zughol, told Petra that the power's maximum load has dropped compared to the load scored yesterday, despite temperature's reaching 40 degrees.

Power demand began to rise earlier this week due to an intense heat wave, which raised demand on air conditioning.
