What does the integration of coal, electricity and new energy mean?

In an electric power enterprise, coal production and power generation projects should be planned, constructed and operated at the same time, and coal production should be regarded as a prerequisite for power plant construction. Coal bases and power plants should develop in a coordinated way, be reasonably matched and give full play to their respective advantages. Coal-electricity integration is a new model for the development of electric power industry in China.

Implementing the integrated development mode of coal and electricity can improve the comprehensive utilization rate of coal resources, and closely combining coal production with power project construction is one of the effective ways to solve the current energy shortage in China. Because the coal-electricity integration model can reduce the state's investment and policy support for the development of coal resources, it can greatly improve the utilization efficiency and comprehensive competitiveness of coal resources in China.
