Swiss hydroelectric reserves rose less than average last week, slowing the build-up of water used to generate power in the country.

Reservoir levels climbed 3.9 percentage points to 25.6 percent full in the week through June 6, the Bern, Switzerland-based Swiss Federal Energy Office said today in an e-mailed statement. They typically advance 5.9 points in the week, according to data kept since 1997. The increase was the fifth this year.
