The North welcomes 'golden rain', but many places still have power outages

Updated power outage schedule today, June 9, in Hanoi, Vinh Phuc, Thai Nguyen, Bac Giang… there are still many areas without power. However, the weather in the North has cooled down with widespread rain, after many consecutive days of intense heat.

Many residential areas and roads near Cat Bi International Airport (Hai An District, Hai Phong City) lost power on the evening of June 8.

According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, from yesterday afternoon, June 8 to early this morning, June 9, in the Northern region and Thanh Hoa, there was moderate rain, heavy rain, and in some places very heavy rain.

Specifically, the rainfall measured from 1:00 p.m. on June 8 to 3:00 a.m. on June 9 was generally from 30 - 80 mm, with some places over 100 mm such as: Minh Quang (Vinh Phuc) 195.3 mm, Dong Xuan (Phu Tho) 108.8 mm;, Dong Bac (Hoa Binh) 130.4 mm, Suoi Giang (Yen Bai) 114.8 mm, Muong Sai (Son La) 121.0 mm, Thiet Ke (Thanh Hoa) 112.2 mm...

11 hydroelectric reservoirs have run out of water and must stop generating electricity.

For people in the North who have endured the harsh hot weather for many days, these rains are like "golden rain" that cools the air while many residential areas still have power outages and rotating power cuts.

Announcing the power outage schedule on June 9 in Thai Nguyen, Thai Nguyen Electricity Company has updated 14 areas with power outages due to repairs, renovations, and maintenance of the power grid. In recent days, the extremely hot weather and high demand for electricity have caused local overloads and threatened to cause problems in some areas. To prevent problems with the power system, the power company will repair the power grid.

Many areas lost power for a long time, from 2pm to 8pm, and from 3pm to 10pm. However, Thai Nguyen Electricity Company said it would promptly fix the problem and restore power as soon as possible and hoped that people and electricity customers would understand.

The power outage schedule in Hanoi on June 9 also recorded many residential areas continuing to lose power.

In Ha Dong District, the resettlement areas LK27, 28; part of Nam Cuong urban area, areas L, M, in Duong Noi Ward had power outage from 7:00 to 15:00. In addition, alleys 2, 4, 18 Thanh Binh Street; part of residential groups 7, 8 in Phu Lam Ward had power outage from 7:00 to 13:00.

In Son Tay town, there are 8 areas that have to "temporarily stop power supply" at different times, concentrated in Vien Son and Ngo Quyen wards; notably, part of Hospital 105 also had power cut.

11 hydroelectric reservoirs have run out of water and must stop generating electricity.

In Hai Phong on the evening of June 8, many areas around Cat Bi International Airport (Hai An District) also lost power in both residential areas and traffic lighting systems. According to Hai Phong Electricity Company, today there will be 16 areas without power in the districts of Thuy Nguyen, An Lao, Vinh Bao, Tien Lang, An Lao and the districts of Hai An, Hong Bang, Do Son...

The power supply to the northern provinces in the coming days is forecast to continue to be difficult. By June 8, many hydropower plants nationwide had to stop generating electricity because the water level in the lakes had reached or was approaching the dead water level, making safe operations impossible. Among them, many hydropower reservoirs provide the majority of electricity for the North.

Among the large hydroelectric plants in the North, only Hoa Binh Hydroelectric Plant still has water in its reservoir to generate electricity. However, if there is no heavy rain in the coming days to replenish the water supply, Hoa Binh Hydroelectric Plant will only be able to generate electricity until June 12-13.
