Nationwide Shortage of Power Supply

According to experts, China is facing a more severe power shortage at present than it did in the second half of the year 2006. In fact, a good number of provincial areas have already imposed power brownouts in the past few months.

There is no doubt that accelerating development of power-intensive industrial sectors, the growing pace of urbanization and low energy efficiency should be blamed for the extensive shortage of power supply. Besides, the situation is worsened by slow power construction and inadequate overall power generation.

In order to ease the current power shortage, a package of measures should be introduced as soon as possible. Firstly, a nationwide campaign should be launched to educate the public about methods to improve efficiency of energy consumption. Secondly, great efforts should be made to curb wasteful duplications and cut irrational demand in some industries. Thirdly, construction of energy and transport projects should be accelerated to expand power supply. Lastly, it is necessary to optimize energy structure and establish a diversified energy consumption pattern. Only in this way can China’s power shortage ease and finally disappear in the near future.

全國電力短缺

根據(jù)專家說法，中國現(xiàn)在面臨的能源短缺問題比2006年下半年還要嚴(yán)峻。實際上，多數(shù)省市在過去的幾個月里已經(jīng)開始推行部分地區(qū)限制用電了。

毫無疑問，高能耗工業(yè)部門的快速發(fā)展、城市化的進程和低能效是能源極度短缺的罪魁禍?zhǔn)?。緩慢的能源建設(shè)和總能源發(fā)電量的不足也惡化了這種情況。

為了緩解現(xiàn)狀，我們應(yīng)該盡快采取一系列措施。首先，應(yīng)該展開一場全國性的教育公眾如何提高能源使用效率的活動;其次，應(yīng)該加大力度阻止的無意義的重復(fù)，并且削減部分工業(yè)部門的無理的要求;再次，應(yīng)該加快能源和運輸工程的建設(shè)以擴大能源供應(yīng);最后，優(yōu)化能源結(jié)構(gòu)、建設(shè)多樣性的能耗模式是有必要的。只有這樣，中國的能源短缺問題才能得到緩解并在不久的將來徹底消失。
