Coal fired heating area accounts for 83% of the total heating area

It is understood that coal-fired heating area accounts for 83% of the total heating area in China, and natural gas, electricity, geothermal energy, biomass energy, solar energy, industrial waste heat, etc. account for 17% of the total. A few days ago, the national development and Reform Commission issued a notice calling on all localities to adapt to local conditions and ensure the warmth of the people for the winter. According to the latest statistics of China Coal Industry Association, China's coal production has maintained a steady upward trend this year. In the first 10 months of this year, China's coal output was 3.06 billion tons, up 4.5% year on year. At the same time, China's net coal import reached 270 million tons, up 9.6% year on year. Zhang Hong, Secretary of Discipline Inspection Committee of China Coal Industry Association: in terms of consumption demand, in the first 10 months of this year, the total consumption of coal in China has increased by 0.8%, so in terms of production, import and consumption, the supply is relatively loose, and it should be said that the stable supply of coal in China is guaranteed. Li Yunqing, director of the economic operation regulation Bureau of the national development and Reform Commission: we should ensure stable production and supply on the premise of safe operation. All power generation and heating enterprises in all regions should implement the coal source in many ways, connect the transportation capacity in advance, ensure the stability and reliability of the coal supply, and ensure the warmth of the people for the winter. At the same time, the national development and Reform Commission said that in this winter's heating work, it will adhere to the principle of "gas is gas, electricity is electricity, coal is coal", put an end to "one size fits all" and take multiple measures to promote clean heating in an orderly manner.
