This represents a 3% increase in the total generation compared to the previous year (in February 2023, the total generation was 987 mln. kWh).

On a monthly basis, the generation decreased by 13% (in January 2024, the total generation was 1,175 mln. kWh). The monthly fall in total generation is induced by the decrease of thermal and hydropower generation by 20% and 9%, respectively, while wind power generation increased by 5%.
