中国规模最大分布式光伏发电示范项目开工 - 光明网/中国新闻网 | XXXXXXXX. 30日，中航工业集团400兆瓦分布式光伏发电示范项目首批20兆瓦示范项目集中开工仪式在石家庄举行，这是中国目前规模最大的分布式光伏发电项目单体工程，建成后年发电量超4亿度 据中航工业集团非航空产业部副部长马学文介绍，2013年4月，国家能源局批复同意该集团建设400兆瓦分布式发电项目。这是开展太阳能电站项目以来，国家能源局首次批准由企业集团独立承担的示范项目。目前，中航工业集团进入分布式发电领域时机成熟，集团自身厂房单体面积大、建筑结构稳固、产权关系明晰、用电负荷平稳、企业健康稳定等诸多优势为项目的规模化实施创造了独有条件。
财政部：分布式光伏发电按电量补贴 - xinhua/ 经济参考报 | XXXXXXXX. 7月31日，财政部发布《关于分布式光伏发电实行按照电量补贴政策等有关问题的通知》，国家将对分布式光伏发电项目按电量给予补贴，补贴资金通过电网企业转付给分布式光伏发电项目单位。此外，还将改进光伏电站、大型风力发电等补贴资金管理。对于公众最为关心的补贴标准，在此次《通知》中并没有明确数额，仅表示将综合考虑分布式光伏上网电价、发电成本和销售电价等情况确定，并适时调整。（王璐）
光伏发电或每度补贴0.42元 - 光明网/国际金融报 | XXXXXXXX. 7月31日，财政部发布通知，确定了分布式光伏发电项目按电量补贴实施办法。通知表示，国家对分布式光伏发电项目按电量给予补贴，补贴资金通过电网企业转付给分布式光伏发电项目单位。 申请补贴的分布式光伏发电项目必须符合以下条件：按照程序完成备案。具体备案办法由国家能源局另行制定。项目建成投产，符合并网相关条件，并完成并网验收等电网接入工作。 分布式光伏发电特指采用光伏组件，将太阳能直接转换为电能的分布式发电系统。该模式倡导就近发电，就近并网，就近转换，就近使用的原则，能有效提高同等规模光伏电站的发电量，并解决电力在升压及长途运输中的损耗问题。
煤炭运输业挣扎在亏损边缘 拉一吨煤才赚2元钱 - 光明网/中国经济时报 | XXXXXXXX. 产能过剩不断扩张，价格持续走低，全国煤炭行业陷入 "水深火热"，与之相关联的煤炭运输行业也出现持续下滑，往来于全国各地的物流运输大军中少了许多煤炭运输的"身影"。 中国经济时报记者调查发现，作为煤炭产业的下游，运输公司、物流公司、集运站、发煤站等，曾被外界看作依附煤炭而红火的"暴发户"产业，如今正经历着一场"生死劫"。 拉一吨煤才赚2元钱 通常在煤炭商的总成本中，运输成本会占一半。煤炭紧俏时，运费越高，煤炭商的利润空间就越小。但要是有煤没有运输工具，煤就不能变成钱，因此煤炭商对于煤炭运输商的坐地起价也无可奈何。
China's industrial growth 'a threat to resources' - SCMP | UN study warns China is consuming minerals and fossil fuels 'at a rate never seen before'. ...In the last three decades, China has grown from a modest user of minerals, fossil fuels and other primary materials to become the world's largest consumer, the report found. The country consumed 22.6 billion tonnes of such materials in 2008 - nearly a third of the world's total - up from 1.7 billion tonnes in 1970. It consumes four times as much as the United States, the second-biggest user. "This is a combined result of China's huge population and fast economic growth during the period," said Chen Shaofeng , a researcher with the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Institute of Policy and Management, a main author of the report. The country's population grew to 1.3 billion from 816 million over the 38-year period. But the amount of resources used by every citizen has also soared as their living standards improved. Per capita resource consumption rose from 31 per cent of the world average in 1970 to 1.62 times the world average in 2008, with the sharpest rise coming after 2000.... Despite a continuous increase in resource efficiency - growing at a rate of 3.91 per cent annually - the country still lags behind global and regional standards. In 2009, China used 2.5 times more energy than the global average to produce each unit of economic growth. . . . The report also mentioned the country's environmental decline. By the end of last year, fewer than one in four major cities in China had safe air. About 30 per cent of the country's major rivers and 60 per cent of its groundwater was polluted, according to the Ministry of Environmental Protection.
Toxic plant shut down, but Hunan village residents still dying - SCMP | Residents of communities surrounding a shuttered heavy metal factory say cancer is endemic despite an official clean-up effort
The Xianghe Chemical plant in the farming town of Zhentou in Hunan province closed nine years ago, but every few months villagers living nearby add another name to their list of neighbours and friends who have died from heavy metal exposure. Anyone able to move away did so years ago; only the elderly, the ill and the very young remain. Farmers dare not sell their crops - the soil is toxic and the rain is poison, they say.The plant opened in 2004, ostensibly to make an animal-feed additive, zinc sulphate, but in fact it produced indium - used in solar panels and liquid crystal displays. It discharged untreated effluent containing cadmium and indium, which poisoned wells and seeped into the soil of farmers' fields. The metals cause digestive disorders and can trigger cancers. After a sustained local campaign by villagers that caught national attention, the plant was closed in 2009. The site was razed and the open storage pools filled in, but the rubble and the husks of a few structures are still there. That same year officials admitted five people had died from cadmium poisoning, and medical examinations of people living within 1.2 kilometres of the site found almost 600 had been seriously affected by exposure to zinc and cadmium. Villagers say the true number of people dangerously exposed is twice or three times higher than the official number.
Weatherford, China's Sinopec close to oil service tie-up; shale in focus - Reuters | China's Sinopec Corp and U.S.-listed Weatherford International are in advanced talks about forming a joint oilfield service company, as the world's top energy consumer seeks overseas expertise to help unlock its vast shale resources, said people with direct knowledge of the matter. The proposed joint venture would likely be the largest of its kind in China, aiming to marry Weatherford's technological know-how with the Chinese oil major's potential to grow in a nascent shale oil and gas sector.

China Ready to Reap Billions From U.S. Shale Gas Technology - Motley Fool | China has spent billions of dollars in the U.S. to snap up joint venture deals with the pioneers of the shale gas revolution. While it would appear on the surface that China is interested in locking up its own supply of natural gas, that might not be the case. Instead, what's much more likely is that China is using these deals to gain valuable education and access to U.S. shale gas technology. It's now poised to take what it learned back home so that it can start its own shale gas revolution. According to estimates by the U.S. Energy Information Agency, China has the most technically recoverable shale gas in the world. If fact, it estimates that China has nearly double the technically recoverable reserves of the U.S. The problem was that it didn't know how to develop its own reserves, until now
