In the near future, the overall daily consumption level of the power plant is steadily higher, and the power coal consumption is vigorous. Market people believe that the demand season for power coal will continue for a period of time. In addition, the demand for coking coal resources is strong and the price is strong because of the shortage of natural gas. Reporters learned that the Shanxi coking coal group has raised 80-100 yuan per ton on the price of coking coal under the banner of 1.

According to Pan Hanxiang, a researcher at the Institute of Yi coal research, the demand for coal consumption in the coastal market is strong in the near future. Last week in the last week of last December, the coal consumption of the six large coastal power plants reached 5 million 210 thousand and 600 tons, and the average daily consumption of coal reached 744 thousand and 400 tons. Recently, the total inventory of six large coastal power plants fell to 10 million tons again, 9 million 904 thousand and 900 tons, and the number of days in stock was only 13.2 days. If the minimum inventory of inventory management system is estimated for 20 days, there is a space of about 4 million 300 thousand tons of replenishment.
"The increase in economic resilience, the shortage of natural gas supply and the low water period of water and electricity are all the reasons for the substantial increase in the daily consumption of electric coal." Deng Shun, a coal researcher from Guangzhou Development Group, told reporters in an interview with the Shanghai Daily, according to the rule of past years, the daily consumption data usually began to decline 7 to 10 days before the Lunar New Year's Eve. Therefore, the data of the daily consumption of electric coal will continue to maintain a high level in January. The price of power coal will still maintain a small increase in the short term. However, the recent import of coal customs clearance has been relaxed, and it is expected that imported coal is expected to supplement the market in late January.
Wang Qiuli revealed that the first working day after the new year's day, the local coal mining started to increase in varying degrees. The reporter learned that the coal railway transportation in the later period will also be improved.
Since the beginning of winter, natural gas supply for more industry impact. A notice recently obtained by the Shanghai Daily reporter showed that in order to alleviate the tension of natural gas supply in Shanxi Province during the peak winter season, a part of the supply gas coking enterprises were allowed to fully load under the condition of environmental compliance. New natural gas (or coke oven gas instead of natural gas) is used for the livelihood of the people.
Coal industry people believe that the rising start rate of coking enterprises in the north will increase the demand for coking coal. The Fen Wei energy metallurgical coal report shows that the coking coal price of producing area continues to rise because of the low production in the near future, the tighter market supply and the increase in the downstream start. Sulfur shortage continued downstream, goods will be positive, at present low parts of Shanxi coking coal price gap is large, the mine will hike, is expected to increase by about 100 yuan / ton.0
