Much of the peak electricity demand is during the daytime, unsurprisingly (see link).TPN National wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 5:52 am The intense heat has resulted in a surge in electricity consumption, with power usage reaching a new peak of 36,699 megawatts on Monday (Apr 29), setting the third record-breaking demand within a week. In response to the escalating power needs, Thailand’s state-owned energy company, PTT, has acquired an emergency shipment of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and is reportedly considering additional purchases. LNG is primarily utilized for power generation within the country.

Very heavy thunderstorms today on "The Dark Side" too - and it is great. Much cleaner air and finally comfortable temperatures. Better still, similar weather is predicted for the next 10 days.
