Coal use to be strictly enforced

China will enforce a strict limit on total coal consumption and continue to cut production, a senior energy official said yesterday.

Li Haofeng, deputy director of the coal office under the National Energy Administration, made the remarks at an international coal summit. He said measures were needed to ensure the sustainable development of the coal industry.

To this end, he said, China will promote the clean, efficient usage of coal by using some of the world鈥檚 most advanced process to support the industrial upgrade.

China will boost coal market reform and strengthen cooperation with other countries with huge coal production and consumption.

China will reduce the ratio of coal in primary energy consumption from 66 percent this year to around 50 percent by 2050, said the National Coal Association.
