Kepco's troubles

 
A room with monitors showing power demand and supply in real time at Korea Electric Power Corp.’s (Kepco) office in Suwon, Gyeonggi, on Monday. Electricity demand is expected to surge this winter for both industrial and general use. In the first 11 months, electricity exchanged increased 2.5 percent year-on-year to all-time record of 498,757 gigawatt hours. Kepco is facing a major crisis, especially as the Democratic Party, which holds the majority in the National Assembly, has voted against raising the company’s debt limit. [NEWS1]
