-- 九州電力は木曜日、3月31日を期末とする会計年度の発電量と販売量が前年同期比で減少したと発表した。 自社発電量と他社からの受入電力を合わせた総発電量は102.5テラワット時（TWh）で、前年の106.8TWhを下回った。 発電量は全体的に減少し、特に原子力発電量は2.2TWh減の28.6TWhと大幅に減少した。原子力発電の稼働率は6.3%減の82.3%となった。 販売量も前年同期比で減少し、101.0TWhから98.3TWhとなった。小売販売量は7TWh減の68.6TWhとなり、卸売販売量の4.2TWh増の29.6TWhを相殺した。 「小売電力販売量は減少したものの、送電収入の増加や、火力発電のエネルギーミックスの変化による発電コストの低下に伴う燃料費の減少などの要因により、前年比で利益が増加した」と同社は述べた。 来年度、同社は小売電力販売量がさらに1.5テラワット時（TWh）減少し、67.1TWhになると見込んでいる。一方、卸売電力販売量は約800ギガワット時増加し、30.4TWhになると予測している。 これにより、純販売量は約800GWh減少し、総電力販売量は97.5TWhとなる。 原子力発電量については、稼働率が2.4%上昇して84.7%となることで、900GWh増加し、29.5TWhになると見込んでいる。

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."
