In May 2022, total net electricity generation was 1,160 GWh. Compared to April, it increased by 6%, while compared to May 2021 it decreased by 15%. Generation in hydro power plants was 49% lower, in thermal power plants 22% higher and in the nuclear power plant 22% higher at the annual level.
In line with the higher production in thermal power plants, fuel consumption also increased. Total fuel consumption was 18% higher than a year ago.
872 GWh of electricity was imported and 912 GWh was exported. Compared to the same month last year, import increased by 51% and export increased by 17%.
New: monthy data on electricity consumption per type of customer and municipalities
