The Energy Division said on Wednesday that the country’s electricity system remained stable and efficient during February 2026, successfully meeting electricity demand that remained higher than expected.
According to a spokesperson, both electricity generation and consumption exceeded expected levels during the month, reflecting increased system utilization. He noted that seasonal factors such as lower Hydel availability, typical of this period, along with temporary outages of certain generation units, influenced the overall energy mix. Despite these conditions, the system was managed prudently through established operating protocols.
He said strict compliance with merit order submission mechanism and optimal utilization of available resources ensured efficient performance of the system.
