已持续近两年的电力供应短缺形势,到2004年已发展为更加严峻,上半年出现拉闸限电的省市区已经达到24个,其中一些省区拉闸限电的天数几乎接近九成。尽管随着宏观调控措施效果的逐步显现,全年电力需求增速较上年将会出现小幅回落,但下半年尤其是夏季高峰期全国电力供需形势仍不容乐观。 The shortage of power supply, which has been going on for nearly two years, has become even more severe by 2004. In the first half of the year, the number of provinces and municipalities that have taken out the power rationing scheme has reached 24, with some of them nearly 90% . Although with the gradual appearance of the effect of macro control measures, the annual growth rate of electricity demand will be slightly lower than the previous year, but the power supply and demand situation in the second half of the year, especially in the summer peak, is still not optimistic.
