The power supply will be sufficient for Ningbo as winter approaches, said local authorities. Power demand was on rise as recent cold airs visited Ningbo and brought a temperature drop from 15 ℃ in late October to the current 5 ℃. The city's maximum power consumption was 6.93 million kilowatts on November 9, an increase of nearly 300,000 kilowatts compared to the end of October, an increase of 9.5 percent year-on-year.
According to previous experience, Ningbo will expect its peak winter demand in mid-December as heating demand grows. It is estimated that the maximum power demand could reach 8 million kilowatts this winter.
