As indicated in the Department of Energy (DOE) projections, there will be a slight power shortage in 2015. However, the DOE has been aware of this situation from the start and is continuously implementing short-term and long-term mitigating measures.

The DOE is closely monitoring demand to address the possible supply gap and ensure that all programmed power generating capacities will come online and on time. Improvements in demand forecasting will likewise provide a clear picture of the energy requirements and guide investors in assessing the country’s power industry.
