#Vietnamese officials have called on #Apple supplier #Foxconn to reduce power use by 30% at its assembly plants in the north of the country where there were #electricity#outages last year, two people familiar with the matter said.
The request for #EnergySaving measures, which two other industry sources said was sent to multiple manufacturers, is precautionary & aimed at averting a repeat of last summer when #PowerShortage led to over a billion dollars in lost output.
