This has forced the use of the rest of the generators, including the thermal ones, the natural gas plant, the wind and the solar ones. The National Energy Secretariat (SNE) confirmed that there were lower levels than the average in Fortuna and Bayano, "but now w have the solar panels that are contributing to us this summer like never before in the peak hours [of more consumption]." Due to this situation, the SNE reported that "this summer and that of 2023 we know that we must be monitoring.". https://www.newsroompanama.com/news/low-water-levels-in-hydro-reservoirs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
