-- 日本九州电力公司周四公布，截至3月31日的财年发电量和售电量均有所下降。 自有设施发电量和从其他公司接收的电力总量为102.5太瓦时，低于上年的106.8太瓦时。 所有能源的发电量均有所下降，其中核电发电量降幅最大，减少了2.2太瓦时，至28.6太瓦时，核电利用率下降了6.3%，至82.3%。 售电量也同比下降，从101.0太瓦时降至98.3太瓦时。零售售电量下降了7太瓦时，至68.6太瓦时，抵消了批发售电量4.2太瓦时（至29.6太瓦时）的增长。 该公司表示：“尽管零售电力销量有所下降，但由于输电收入增加以及火电能源结构调整导致发电成本降低，燃料成本下降等因素，利润较上年有所增长。” 这家日本电力公司预计，下一财年零售电力销量将进一步下降1.5太瓦时（TWh），至67.1太瓦时。同时，预计批发电力销量将增加约800吉瓦时，达到30.4太瓦时。 这将导致净减少约800吉瓦时，使总电力销量达到97.5太瓦时。 在核能发电方面，九州电力预计核电发电量将增加900吉瓦时，达到29.5太瓦时，这主要得益于核电利用率提高2.4%，达到84.7%。

Canada's Economy Remains on "Shaky Grounds" Based On GDP, While Payroll Data "Paint An Even More Fragile Picture", Says Desjardins
Today's GDP data showed Canada's economy remained on "shaky ground" through the first quarter of 2026, while today's payroll data "paint an even more fragile picture" of the economy, said Royce Mendes over at Desjardins.While Canadian gross domestic product advanced 0.2% month over month in February, in line with consensus, growth tailed off in March, while Statistics Canada's flash estimate points to a flat reading for the final month of Q1. Both the Desjardins quarterly estimate for GDP by expenditure and GDP by industry are tracking an annualized advance of roughly 1.5%, which is consistent with the Bank of Canada's most recent projection, Mendes noted.Given the weak handoff, Desjardins agrees with the central bank's forecast for another quarter of roughly 1.5% growth in Q2, he said.The Survey of Employment, Payrolls and Hours Payroll (SEPH) data, also released Thursday, showed the economy shed 60,000 jobs in February, more than reversing the increase of 44,000 positions in January.Weakness was relatively broad-based across categories, with losses seen in both trade-exposed and non-trade-exposed sectors. In the past few months, Ontario and Quebec have led the way lower, Mendes noted."The GDP and payroll data released today are consistent with an economy unlikely to produce excess inflationary pressures," Mendes said, before adding: "Should oil prices decline in the coming months, the Bank of Canada can remain on the sidelines, confident that the temporary effects of higher oil prices will not generate a sustained period of high inflation."
