Ua kauoha aku nā luna o ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Shanghai i nā uila hoʻonani a pau ma luna o ka muliwai skyscrapers a me nā hale ʻē aʻe e hāʻawi ana i ka hub hoʻokele waiwai o Kina i kona hiʻohiʻona hiʻohiʻona, e hoʻopau ʻia, ma waena o ka skyrocketing uwila koi triggered e ka epic heatwave.
Ma kahi kauoha i paʻi ʻia i nehinei, ua kauoha nā luna o ke kūlanakauhale e pio ka 'kukui ʻāina' ma ka moku kaulana ʻo Bund ma Shanghai no ʻelua lā e hoʻomaka i kēia lā.
Hoʻopili ʻia ke kauoha like i nā papa hoʻolaha a me nā pale wikiō ma nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua o ka muliwai ʻo Huangpu, ua hoʻohui nā alakaʻi o Shanghai.
Wahi a Shanghai ʻO nā luna o ke kūlanakauhale, ʻo ke ʻano kaohi ʻana e hoʻemi i ke kaomi ʻana i ka mana o ke aupuni ma waena o ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka uila i hoʻomaka ʻia e ka wela wela, ka mea i pā i kekahi mau panalāʻau ma Kina a hoʻouna i ka hoʻohana uila.
Me ka wela e piʻi ana i ka +113 F degere (+45 C), ua hoʻonui nui ʻia ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka A/C i ka pono o ka mana uila.
Eia kekahi, ua hāʻule nui ka pae wai ma nā wahi o ka muliwai ʻo Yangtze, ke ala wai uka nui o Kina, me ka hoʻoikaika nui ʻana i nā mea kanu hydroelectric e hoʻolako i ka uila i kekahi o nā kikowaena waiwai hoʻomohala a hoʻopau i ka mana.
I ka lilo ʻana o ke kūlana me ka nele o ka uila ma kekahi mau wahi o ka ʻāina, ua hoʻolōʻihi ʻia nā luna kūloko ma ke komohana hema o Sichuan no ʻehā mau lā i kahi papahana hoʻokaʻawale mana no nā mea kūʻai aku.
"Mai Iulai o kēia makahiki, ua kū ka ʻāina i nā wela kiʻekiʻe loa, ka ua haʻahaʻa loa i ka wā e pili ana i ka mōʻaukala… {a me} ka ukana mana kiʻekiʻe loa ma ka mōʻaukala," wahi a nā luna.
Ua ʻōlelo mua aku ka poʻe loiloi ʻoihana e hiki ke hoʻopilikia i ka ʻoki ʻana i ka mana uila ma Sichuan i nā kaulahao lako honua, ʻoiai ʻo ia ka home no kekahi mau mea hana nui.
ʻO kekahi mau mea hana kaʻa, me nā hale hana i hana ʻia e Toyota a me Elon Musk's Tesla, ua ho'ōki i ka hana.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- According to Shanghai city officials, the restrictive measure is aimed at easing the pressure on the national power grid amid soaring electricity consumption triggered by a historic heatwave, that has hit several provinces in China and sent electricity consumption surging.
- I ka lilo ʻana o ke kūlana me ka nele o ka uila ma kekahi mau wahi o ka ʻāina, ua hoʻolōʻihi ʻia nā luna kūloko ma ke komohana hema o Sichuan no ʻehā mau lā i kahi papahana hoʻokaʻawale mana no nā mea kūʻai aku.
- Moreover, water levels in parts of the Yangtze River, China's key inland waterway, have fallen significantly, putting yet more pressure on the hydroelectric plants that supply electricity to some of China's most developed and power-consuming economic centers.
