由于电力需求增加,中国的热煤进口猛增,达到创纪录的高水平。 China's thermal coal imports surge to a record high due to increased electricity demand.

由于电力需求增加和水电产量下降,预计中国热煤进口11月将达到创纪录的3 750万公吨,高于10月的3 212万公吨,创下历史新高。 China's thermal coal imports are expected to hit a record high of 37.5 million metric tons in November, up from 32.12 million in October, due to increased electricity demand and lower hydropower output. 尽管进口需求强劲,但热煤价格没有上涨,因为国内煤炭生产增加,海运煤价格封顶。 Despite strong import demand, thermal coal prices have not risen, as domestic coal production has increased and capped seaborne coal prices. 煤炭仍占中国发电总量的60%左右。 Coal still accounts for about 60% of China's power generation.
