The electric power industry, in alignment with the directives of the Ninth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, is dynamically engaged in enhancing power production capabilities. This collective effort is important in supporting the revitalization of the national economy and improving living standards across the country.
The Ministry of Electric Power Industry is at the helm, orchestrating efforts to ensure a stable and sufficient electric power supply. Their strategy encompasses the efficient operation of generating equipment and the power transmission and supply system, coupled with technological upgrades. These measures are integral to bolstering the overall power production capacity.
In the realm of thermal power, significant strides are being made to restore and optimize the performance of generating equipment, as well as to address and rectify any operational shortcomings. Similarly, the hydropower sector is focused on enhancing dam stability and maximizing water storage through quality structural repairs, all aimed at boosting electricity production.
At the East Pyongyang Thermal Power Station, there is a strong emphasis on science and technology as the primary drivers for increasing power production. The team there is deeply aware of their critical role in the nation’s electric power generation and is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of their current capabilities.The management at this station is spearheading efforts to not just maintain but exceed their existing generating capacity. This ambition involves mobilizing scientists and technicians, setting ambitious production targets, and systematically addressing and resolving challenges to elevate electricity output.
