China Coal Association responds to coal-electricity dispute that profit is normal and will not appear electricity shortage

With the peak of electricity consumption in winter approaching, the local areas of our country once again faced with the supply of electricity coal pressure problem, had to pull off power rationing, coal and electricity so that both sides of the battle of the fighting more and more fierce.　　Yesterday, the China Coal Industry Association (CSR) in the briefing, the coal and electricity enterprises, the uneven distribution of profits, local coal supply tension will be caused by the national electricity shortage and other hot issues have responded.　　Uneven distribution of profits? Response: Coal enterprise profits normal coal and electricity are the same industrial chain at both ends, but many of the electricity companies have questioned the loss of thermal power plants is serious, and coal enterprises are profitable. In this respect, China Coal Association secretary General Kang Zhimin yesterday explained that coal enterprises profit margin of about 11%, is a normal level. The reason for the difference in the profits of coal-electricity enterprises is that most of the coal prices have been marketization, and electricity prices are under control, "I believe the government is not do not want to move electricity prices, but the CPI is higher, if the price rise will trigger a ripple effect."　　Kang Zhimin believes that this contradiction will no longer exist after the time window of the electricity price adjustment is coming.　　Local electric coal tension? Response: There will be no electricity shortage at present, Shaanxi, Henan, Shandong and other places in the local electric coal tension, individual power plants without coal can be burned, people worry about coal shortage, electricity shortage will spread to other parts of the country.　　The Chinese Electric Power Enterprise Federation also said that successive coal prices have put the electricity companies under great pressure, individual power plants even have no money to buy coal. In this respect, Kang Zhimin said, as of yesterday, the National Key power Plant coal inventory of 15 days, far above the 10-day cordon, "now China is not short of coal, people do not have to worry about the coal supply problem." But our country is vast, the transportation system is not perfect, but individual power plant coal is few, now the whole systems are intensifying the coordination communication.　　Overall, there will be no widespread electricity shortages. Kang Zhimin also said that in the presence of coal-fired power plants, some are in the main coal-producing areas. "Squat in the coal pit in the absence of coal?"　　"Kang Zhimin that, do not rule out these electricity companies" in view of the next door is selling coal, so did not do a good job in coal storage.　　The coal-electricity contract is slow?　　Response: End of the year to ensure the signing of the deadline to date, from the Development and Reform Commission limited coal power contract signing deadline-December 31 only 4 days, and as of yesterday, the key electric coal contract online input volume of 312 million tons, insufficient should enter the total amount of 50%, people worry about the coal power enterprises again into the In this respect, Wang Shijun, director of the economic operation of China Coal Association, explained at the meeting yesterday that there was no price game between coal and electricity this year. Because of the NDRC's clear request: In the 2011 coal production and transport needs of convergence, the annual key coal contract prices to maintain the level of the last year unchanged, not in any form raise prices openly.　　The reason for the current slow signing of the situation, but because of the psychological imbalance in the coal enterprises, I believe that eventually the state-owned coal enterprises will carry out the requirements of the NDRC, "according to the Convention, the current input volume is normal, the later contract input will be more and more, the end of the year will However, the contract is signed, the final can be realized how much is the key. At present, coal and electricity both sides argueThe most intense is the key to the coal contract redemption rate. For the 2010 contract redemption rate, coal companies said as high as 90%, but the power plant said less than 60%. The reporter learned that the NDRC has led the organization of Electric Enterprises, coal and railway three parties, the 2010 300,000 tons of key coal contracts for the spot checks, the results found that less than 50% of the contract redemption rate. And the reason for this situation, coal, electricity and railways are responsible, the situation is quite complex, such as some power plants in the contract period during the period of abundant water not to electric coal, in the peak coal consumption when the capacity is insufficient and so on.　　It is reported that the NDRC is interested in the completion of the coal contract in 2011, the rate of the contract to make clear requirements.
