Emergency measures were taken to cut energy consumption yesterday as Beijing's power grids were again pushed close to capacity.

Power usage in the capital reached 10.27 million kilowatts yesterday after the record high of 10.58 million kilowatts on Wednesday.

With the city's power safety limit set at 10.60 million kilowatts, steps were taken to reduce consumption by 600,000 kilowatts and ensure safe operation of the grid.

According to requirements issued by the Beijing Municipal Commission of Development and Reform, giant energy consumers such as Beijing Shougang Group, the country's fourth largest steel manufacturer, cut its power consumption by 200,000 kilowatts yesterday.

In addition, more than 300 units, including large-scaled office buildings, shopping malls, factories, and governmental organizations, had to reduce their energy usage by 150,000 kilowatts between 11 am and 12 am, one of the peak consumption periods.

"According to emergency measures, those units were required to cut their energy consumption in some less important fields. The air conditioning would not have been affected," said Chen Tiecheng, an official from Beijing Municipal Commission of Development and Reform. The commission also required street lighting be switched off on one side of the roads to save energy.
