National Power Production Keeps Quite High Growth Rate in the First Half Year
In year 2001, Chinese installed power capacity reaches 338.61 million kwh, increased by 6.0%. Thereinto the waterpower is 83.01 million kwh, heat power 253.14 million kwh and nuclear 2.1 million kwh. The total power production is 148.39 million kw, increased by 8.4%. The growth of power production is 2.4 percentage points higher than that of installed power capability, which increases by 17.18 million kwh. Compared with that of last year, the growth in installed power capability in the first half year keeps declining but the net increase of installed power capability doesn¡¯t change greatly. Due to decrease in water stock in reservoirs, the waterpower production in area with greater proportion of waterpower is reduced, such as Jilin and Qinghai, but because of the increase in heat power in various regions, national power production still keeps quite high growth rate. The planned new power source is 15 million to 20 million kwh, 8.83 million of which has been finished by the end of June, and there newly appears equipments with 4.5 million kwh installed capability. In the first half of this year, the accumulate national power production is 741.4 billion kwh, correspondingly increased by 8.8%. Thereinto, waterpower is 108.7 billion kwh, only increased by 0.5%, heat power 622.9 billion kwh, increased by 10.3% and nuclear power 9.2 billion kwh, decreased by 11.7%. The average number of utilization hours of power generating equipments increases by 57 hours compared with that in the same period of last year, and the number of utilization hours for her power generating equipments increases by 93 hours. Thereinto, number of utilization hours of heat power generating equipments grows by more than 200 in Fujian, Jiangxi, Hu¡¯nan, Guangdong, Sichuan, Qinghai and Ninghai.
While power production increases largely, the growth in peak load of the major electric networks is faster in the first half of this year. The peak load is respectively 11.8%, 3.4%, 6.4%, 14.0%, 9.8% and 14.7% in North China, Northeast China, East China, Central China, Northwest China and Chuanyu electric networks.

The total power production is 129.948 billion kwh and the daily production is 4.332 billion kwh, increased by 13.2% than that in the same period of last year. Thereinto, the waterpower is 24.913 billion kwh and daily production is 0.83 billion kwh, increased by 10.65%; heat power production is 102.758 billion kwh with a daily production of 3.425 billion kwh, increased by 14.21%; nuclear power production is 2.277 billion kwh with a daily production of 76 million kwh, increased by 50.58%.
