JAKARTA (JP): Electricity utilization in Java and Bali
declined 50 percent to 4,000 megawatt hours a day since three
days before Idul Fitri, the president of state electricity
company PT PLN has said.
Djiteng Marsudi said the reduction was expected to last until
tomorrow and helped the company save generation costs in Java and
Bali, which have an interconnected distribution system, by Rp 8
billion (US$3.35 million) a day, because it was able to shut
several power stations which used with oil and natural gas. (10)
