The daily bulletin of the Electricity Observatory expects a shortage of 1900 MW on Tuesday after the electricity was cut for more than five hours on Monday.
The bulletin noted an increase of 7.21 percent in the maximum consumption compared to the same period last year, and 5.54 percent in the minimum consumption.
It attributed the increase to the low temperatures and a high use of heaters in the last few days.
