Kyushu Electric to buy more fuel to meet winter demand
Kyushu Electric Power expects to buy an additional 2.2 million kilolitres or 13.8 million barrels of crude oil equivalent in December-March.
The company has six reactors at two nuclear plants, but only two of the reactors are currently running, and both will be shut down by mid-December.
The company, which consumes oil, liquefied natural gas and thermal coal, did not give a breakdown by fuel type.
Kyushu Electric predicts it will have a surplus power margin of only 0.4 percent in December and 0.8 percent in January and has asked users to voluntarily curb peak power use by 5 percent.
