GUANGZHOU: Guangdong will face a serious power crisis this year, with consumption forecast to increase by 13 percent compared with last year, the provincial economic and trade commission said on Tuesday.

The province used 253 billion kWh of power in the first three quarters of last year, a year-on-year increase of about 14 percent.

This summer alone, demand is projected to increase by around 7.5 million kW, or 6.5 million kW more than the maximum supply.
