Great Britain's grid operator has paid about £10 million to avoid a power supply crunch on Wednesday evening.

大不列颠的电网运营商已支付了约 1000 万英镑，以避免在周三晚上出现电力供应紧张的局面。

The National Energy System Operator, known as Neso, needed extra electricity because extreme heat was putting pressure on the energy system.

被称为 Neso 的国家电力系统运营商需要额外的电力，因为极端高温正给能源系统带来压力。

Many households have been turning on air conditioning units and electric fans, which has increased demand across the country.

Neso issued a notice on Tuesday night that asked power generators to provide any extra electricity they could.

The grid operator agreed to pay about £1,400 per megawatt-hour for imported electricity from Europe.

This price was nearly 20 times higher than the average electricity market price in June last year.

The warning was cancelled on Wednesday afternoon after enough power had been secured.

在确保有足够的电力后，该警告于周三下午被取消。

A Neso spokesperson explained that extremely high temperatures were affecting both Great Britain and the European continent.
