Yangon Electricity Supply Board
will start cutting power in several industrial zones in the Yangon
Region starting Jan 1, 2013, chairman Aung Khine of YESB said at a media
conference on December 30.
The electricity requirement for the
whole country is 2,060 MW in the summertime. The generation of power is
1,551 MW at present, accounting for 75 per cent of total generation, the
chairman said.
YESB has to cut power in Yangon through rotation system in the summer due to insufficient power supply.
Power will be supplied six hours a day in areas where there are no industries and factories from 5pm to 11pm.
Similarly, electricity will be cut seven hours a day in industrial zones from 4pm to 11pm.
