DUBLIN, January 18, 2019 / PRNewswire / –
The "Research Report on Coal Imports in China, 2019-2023 "report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com & # 39; s offer.
China is the largest producer and consumer of coal. The huge consumption of coal in China encourages foreign coal producers to increase their production capacity. In addition, overseas coal mines are mostly open pit, which facilitates the increase in production.
However, coal production in China is limited by environmental protection policies and other factors. In recent years, some small and medium-sized coal mines have had to reduce or even stop production because their environmental protection facilities were substandard. At the same time, rising mining costs have led to higher coal prices China higher than international coal prices. For example, in 2017, the average price of imported steam coal was only 429 CNY/ tonne, about 12% less than domestic steam coal.
According to this badysis, the logistical costs of imported coal are very low, since imported coal enters mainly China by sea. The logistical costs of domestic coal are much higher, because refined oil prices are more expensive China than in other parts of the world and tolls on motorways are excessively high. So, China imports a large amount of coal each year. In 2017, the volume of coal import into China was 270.9 million tonnes, up 6% from 2016.
Imports of coal are clbadified as anthracite, coking coal, other coals, other bituminous coals and lignite. The first three types of coal are used for thermal energy production and are collectively referred to as steam coal in China. From China Coal imports are dominated by steam coal, which has a low average price. For example, in 2017, steam coal imports reached about 188.14 million tonnes, or about 69.4% of the total. From China coal imports. As the main sources of From China coal imports, in 2017, Indonesia, Australia, Mongolia and Russia exported 251 million tons of coal in total China, contributing about 93% to the volume of coal imports in China. Indonesia, the biggest source of From China coal, exported about 109 million tonnes of coal to China in 2017, accounting for 40.2% of the volume of coal imports in China.
According to the researcher, the import of coal can bring the following benefits: China: (1) An appropriate amount of coal imports can suppress price fluctuations and speculation on From China coal market so that downstream industries can maintain stable production and operation; and (2) the import of high quality coking coal which China gaps can promote the development of From China foundries of coke and metals.
However, the Chinese government adopts from time to time policies aimed at restricting coal imports, fearing that a large number of coal imports will harm the interests of the coal coal industry. For example, July 1, 2017according to the provisional measures for the administration of the quality of commercial coal, the ports administered by the provincial governments have ceased to approve the import of coal.
Sure January 9, 2018, the National Energy Administration has had talks with major energy companies on the badessment of the use of coal imported from power plants and the supply of coal for production d & # 39; electricity. At the beginning of April 2018, the customs of From China major coal importing provinces such as Fujian, Guangdong and Zhejiang started to restrict coal imports.
It is expected that the volume of coal import into China will continue to grow from 2019 to 2023, but the growth rate could be limited. On the one hand, imported coal can stabilize coal prices in China and improve the functioning of major downstream coal industries. On the other hand, a large number of coal imports will certainly have an impact on From China coal mining industry. As a result, the Chinese government will adopt policies to regulate and rationalize coal imports.
