KUALA LUMPUR: Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB) is making early preparations to face the monsoon season in three states -Terengganu, Pahang and Perak - by reducing the water levels at its three hydroelectric dams to increase the storage capacity.

TNB Power Generation Sdn Bhd (TNB Genco) managing director Datuk Nor Azman Mufti said, right now, the three TNB dams in Tasik Kenyir, Cameron Highlands, and Sungai Perak are ready to hold the expected higher volume of water from upstream.
