The Unión Eléctrica estimates an availability of 2 568 MW and a maximum demand of 2 750 MW for Monday’s night-time peak hour, for a deficit of 182 MW, so that, if the forecast conditions are maintained, a 252 MW deficit is forecast for this time of day.

SEN availability at 7 a.m. was 2 370 MW and demand 2 050 MW, with the entire system in service.

It is estimated that 100 MW of service will be affected at midday due to a shortfall in generation capacity.

Unit 2 of CTE Santa Cruz and unit 2 of CTE Felton have breakdowns. Unit 1 of CTE Santa Cruz is under maintenance.

The limitations in thermal generation are 556 WW.

39 distributed generation plants, the Melones patana and the Regla patana are out of service due to fuel, for a total of 324 MW affected by this concept.

For the peak, it is estimated that 70 MW of distributed generation engines, which are awaiting maintenance and are authorised for use, will be brought into service, and eight engines will be brought into service at the Melones plant, with 128 MW.

Yesterday, the service was affected by a shortfall in generation capacity in the SEN from 4:03 p.m. to 9 p.m.

The maximum effect during the day was 299 MW at 7:10 p.m., coinciding with the peak hour. More affected than planned due to a lack of fuel at the Melones plant.
