「注意報」、東電管内２９日も継続　猛暑で電力需要落ちず―北海道、東北は見送り・政府

　政府は２８日、東京電力管内に発令している「電力需給逼迫（ひっぱく）注意報」を２９日も継続すると発表した。厳しい暑さが続き、電力需要が「この時期としてはまれな極めて高水準で推移する」（経済産業省）と見込まれるため。経産省は午後３時から８時までの時間帯は特に電力需給が厳しくなるとして、「熱中症に十分注意しつつ、できる限り節電をお願いしたい」と呼び掛けている。節電要請は３日連続。
　２９日について、北海道電力、東北電力は管内の需給見通しが厳しいとして「電力需給逼迫準備情報」を出したが、同日の電力供給は確保できるとみて政府は両管内への注意報発令を見送る。３０日についても北海道、東北、東京各電力がそれぞれの管内に準備情報を出し、警戒を続ける。（2022/06/28-20:59）

The Japanese government said Tuesday that it will keep in place its tight power supply advisory for the service area of Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. on Wednesday.
   The advisory will remain in place for three days in a row as electricity demand is expected to stay at an extremely high level for this season due to continued severe heat, according to the industry ministry.
   The ministry will continue to call for citizens to save electricity as much as possible while being cautious about heatstroke risk. It said that the supply-demand balance is likely to be especially tight between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m.
   Meanwhile, the government decided not to issue such an advisory for the service areas of Hokkaido Electric Power Co. and Tohoku Electric Power Co. on Wednesday as enough power supplies are likely to be secured.
   Hokkaido Electric and Tohoku Electric had issued preparatory information to warn of tight electricity supplies in their service areas expected for Wednesday.
