El Salvador hydroelectric output tepid ahead of El Niño
El Salvador's hydroelectric output in the first five months of this year totaled 592GWh compared to 560GWh in January-May 2013.
The slight increase comes alongside a government forecast that there is a high probability that weather phenomenon El Niño will affect the country from July, even possibly this month.
Data from power market administrator Unidad de Transacciones also revealed that total energy injected into the grid in the period slid 0.92% to 2.6TWh.
This January-May, thermoelectric and geothermal production reached 1.39TWh and 620GWh, respectively, versus 1.37TWh and 616GWh in the year-ago period when imports hit 81.9GWh. No imports were recorded in the first five months this year.
Companies CEL, Duke Energy and LaGeo were the top power producers this year through end-May.
