The Direct Purchase Of Large Consumers In Jiangsu, Zhejiang And Chongqing Has Been Approved By &Nbsp.

The one-time approval of the direct purchase of electricity in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Chongqing marked a substantive step in the reform of electricity prices, which is expected to alleviate the "power shortage" caused by the uncoordinated price system of coal and electricity for a long time, so that the power plant can take an active part in the market competition and straighten out the coal and electricity industry chain.

China's State Electricity Regulatory Commission recently announced that Zhejiang and Jiangsu and Chongqing have been approved by the NDRC once a year before the direct electricity pmission and distribution of electricity users and power producers.

This also means that this year's pilot pmission and distribution tariff reform will take the lead in the three provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Chongqing. It is expected to break the monopoly position of power grid enterprises for a long time.

According to the reply issued by the national development and Reform Commission, the direct electricity trading between Jiangsu electric power users and power generation enterprises is the highest, with electricity price of 0.129 yuan per level, followed by Zhejiang 0.119 yuan and Chongqing 0.113 yuan.

In accordance with the relevant provisions of the pilot method, after approving the pmission and distribution tariff, the 3 provinces and cities participating in the pilot also need to submit the pilot scheme of direct trading between power users and power generation enterprises and the specific objects involved in direct pactions to the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, the national development and Reform Commission and the State Energy Bureau. After the approval of the three departments, the direct pactions between power users and power generation enterprises can be formally carried out.

It is understood that for a long time, the national Power Grid Corp and local power companies have attracted much attention due to their high operating income and large tax payers. The power sector is also regarded as "golden rice bowl".

Among the top 500 Chinese enterprises in 2009, the national Power Grid Corp ranked third in terms of revenue of more than 1 trillion and 140 billion yuan; in the 100 top 100 enterprises of Jiangsu in 2009, jointly issued by the Jiangsu Provincial Commission of letters and statistics, the provincial power company ranked 180 billion 756 million at the top of the business income, which was higher than second of the Shagang Group 23%. The Zhejiang provincial power company ranked third in the 2008 tax payroll of 1 billion yuan or more.

The direct purchase electricity trial is regarded as an attempt to promote the marketization of electricity price. The purpose is to directly negotiate with the power generation enterprises and determine the specific electricity price according to the electricity consumption, thereby breaking the monopoly position of the power grid enterprises for a long time.

However, in order to ensure the coordinated and orderly operation of the power resources, the power plants in the future need to be allocated to the State Grid rather than the direct supply that the general people understand when they supply power to the large consumers. Therefore, on the basis of the bargaining price between the power generation enterprises and the power consumers, the users need to pay a certain "grid toll" (i.e. pmission and distribution price) to the power grid, thus forming the final electricity price.

Therefore, "authorized pmission and distribution tariff" has been recognized as the biggest difficulty in the pilot purchase of direct power purchase.

Tan Rongyao, a spokesman for the Electricity Regulatory Commission, has said that the pilot work of direct purchase of large consumers has been slow, mainly because there is a lack of substantive content in the pilot programs reported everywhere, especially the lack of pmission and distribution tariff standards. The Electricity Regulatory Commission has asked the pilot provinces to submit the pmission and distribution tariff standards as soon as possible, but the progress is not ideal enough.

Some media reports in late April of this year also mentioned that China's original 15 pilot enterprises' direct purchase of electricity is currently in a state of stagnation. Electricity costs have risen due to the rise in electricity coal prices. As a power supplier, the power generation enterprises have begun to resist direct purchase of electricity policy.

Nanjing electric regulatory office experts said that the one-time approval of the direct purchase of electricity in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Chongqing marked a substantive step in the reform of electricity prices, which is expected to alleviate the "power shortage" caused by the uncoordinated price system of coal and electricity for a long time, so that the power plant can actively participate in the market competition and straighten out the coal and electricity industry chain.

However, due to the specific implementation details have not yet been promulgated, at present, the home appliance factory has a low attitude towards the direct purchase of electricity.

A power company official said that at present, the electricity price of power generation companies is 0.43 yuan per time, and the competition between power plants will also intensify as soon as they follow the market in the future.
