51. The chances of selling the company would be better if its generating capacity were doubled, Bernardez said. 52. The cost of buying electricity has soared under deregulation, and the growing economy has led to shortages of generating capacity. 53. The drought forced farmers to harvest crops earlier than normal and slashed generating capacity at hydroelectric plants. 54. The commission also said that it would examine bidding practices and strategies for withholding generating capacity to ferret out any efforts to artificially raise prices. 55. The drought has reduced water levels at dams in central Chile, lessening their generating capacity. 56. The industrial collapse that followed the end of communism has disguised the impending shortfall in generating capacity. 57. The nation will have to increase generating capacity. 58. The new generating capacity is meant to help meet regional demand. 59. The rains boosted generating capacity at hydroelectric plants, which previously had been forced to buy electricity from other generators to meet their sales commitments. 60. The renovated plant is to have a larger generating capacity than the two current plants together. |
