China Coal alarming development of new energy strategy should be as strong - coal, new energy - Electrical Industry

Resources in China is not a big country, it already become a public consensus. The so-called vast land, was a addition to more than 10 million people, became poor "is a small thing thin." However, for coal, the Chinese still somewhat proud of, coal in China is a large country that, in northwest China crowded in upon the "dark cloud" can testify.

However, even this little bit of pride, in 2009, was denied. From the National Energy Bureau of Energy data show that the economic situation conference: in 2009 China imported a total of 126 million tons of coal, up 211.9 percent over the previous year, export of coal 22.4 million tons, down 50.7%; annual net imports of 103 million tons of coal, China's first a net importer of coal. The "net import" because, National Energy Board, the explanation given is: by Financial Crisis, Japan, Korea and other major coal-consuming countries dropped, international coal prices and shipping costs fell sharply, south coastal cities to buy international coal power plant costs less than buying from China; the first to restore our economy, coal demand growth. The situation in 2010, the National Energy Board expects the global coal demand driven economic recovery, international coal prices will maintain the current upward trend, China's coal import growth momentum will clearly slow down.

However, from the beginning of 2 months of trend, the trend of net imports did not slow down, but accelerating trend. Early in January, Yanzhou Coal Mining 3.2 billion acquisition of Australia Felix Resources Limited (Felix) twists and turns, finally settled. January 12 China Metallurgy Science & Industry Co., Ltd. announced that shares will be 200,000,000 U.S. dollars directly to the parent company of Australia ChinaPtyLtd ResourcesHouseLtd (Macao and China resources), China Coal Mine projects to both EPC Contract Management. February 6, Australia's fifth largest businessman Clive - Palmer-controlled mining company RESourcehouse announced that it has with China (by 600,795, stock it) Power International Development Limited has signed a total of 60 billion U.S. dollars of coal trading contract. Australian side said it was the "largest export contract in history." In addition to Australia, the more earlier, China Shenhua, the Chinese in Indonesia were also cast coal investment.

Chinese companies in neighboring countries in search of coal move, had to make people amazed, as one of the top coal power, why did China suddenly have a "pressing." For which reason, nothing more than the following: First, because of supply and demand: international coal market than the domestic coal market liberal; Second, the price reason: the price of coal in China's coastal areas below the domestic price of imports; three policy reasons: national import restrictions to encourage the policy implications of the export coal import and export; 4, institutional reasons: coal and power industry dispute between the coal.

Regardless of the reason how the Chinese a "net importer" of reality, will significantly impact the Asia-Pacific and global geo-economic and even geopolitical. As we all know, Japan is the world's largest coal importer, South Korea is the world's second largest importer of coal, while Indonesia and Australia is the world's top two coal exporter. China This time from the "net exports" to "net importer" of the "defection" will no doubt increase the pressure on Japan and Korea, and from current trends, the pressure is only increasing.

Although China's GDP in one fell swoop than Japan, but China's consumption of coal than the United States, the European Union and Japan combined. Fortunately, by 2009, coal consumption in China, "Fat Man" can become self-sufficient, but once the "Fat Man" to ask for, the world must look askance. Throughout history, whether the two world wars or disputes among nations large and small, the core of conflicts and the interests of all is the word resources. China became the coal, whether the "net exports" is really their own coal shortage the country, or to change from playing "used", the pattern of the world are important, so people seem to have dimly seen Oil The shadow of war.

In the international market, commodity prices have already determined not by supply and demand has.
