The Department of Energy (DOE) reported that power reserves may run low in the first two weeks of May and June.

“Ang binabantayan natin ay iyong first week of May at saka first week of June. First week of May, nagki-carry over sa second week, at saka first week ng June, nagki-carry over sa second week of June, iyon iyong medyo numinipis iyong reserba,” DOE Undersecretary Felix William Fuentebella said during the Saturday News Forum in Quezon City.

“Kaya lang, mayroong dapat sobrang four percent sa regulating reserve requirement, iyon po iyong nagbabalanse ng frequency. And then, ina-add natin doon iyong biggest plant capacity, para sa Luzon na 668 megawatts,” he added.“So tinitingnan natin ang possibility na magkaroon ng kulang na reserba sa regulating reserve at saka dito sa contingency reserve sa first week and second week ng May, first week and second week ng June.”“Do not be wasteful in the use of energy,” Fuentebella said.

The El Niño phenomenon is characterized by the abnormal warming of sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean and below-normal rainfall. —
