菲律宾能源部于6月1日表示，米沙鄢群岛电网可能会面临一到两年的电力供应缺口。
能源部长莎朗·加林在新闻发布会上表示，新的发电厂和输电线路需要时间才能满足不断增长的需求。她指出，协调项目进度存在难度，部分电厂的建设需要三到五年时间。能源部报告称，5月12日至6月1日期间，米沙鄢群岛发布了17次黄色预警和4次红色预警。在此期间，高峰电力需求超过2700兆瓦，而供应量一度降至2044兆瓦。目前有数座电厂处于离线状态，其中包括预计在8月下旬恢复供电的Therma Visayas 1号和2号机组。能源部计划通过动力驳船和电池储能系统增加至少150兆瓦的临时容量。加林强调，虽然该地区可再生能源占比达45%，但仍需更多基荷和中段负荷电源。
Rotating blackouts hit Luzon and the Visayas this week, revealing heavy reliance on a few major power plants and transmission lines. The National Grid Corp. of the Philippines raised red and yellow alerts on May 13 and 14 amid insufficient supply. Analysts from the Institute for Climate and Sustainable Cities warned that disruptions in shared facilities can cascade into wider shortages.

The country’s power grid struggled to fully meet peak daytime electricity demand for the first time this summer, with a shortage of 188 MW when demand hit a record 270 GW on Thursday.
Mexico's National Center for Energy Control (CENACE) forecasts a historic peak of up to 54,000 megawatts in electricity demand during the hottest months from May to late summer, but with sufficient reserves to prevent blackouts. CENACE director Octavio Mota Palomino called it a 'tight summer, but without deficit.' Officials have taken preventive steps ahead of potential heat waves.

India has delayed the planned maintenance of 10 gigawatts of coal-based power plants by three months due to gas supply constraints from the West Asia conflict. Piyush Singh, additional secretary at the Ministry of Power, said 8 GW of gas-based capacity is affected by higher fuel costs from the Iran war. The government plans to add 22 GW of new capacity in the next three months.
