Abstract :
China is the world´s most populous nations, the world´s fastest growing economy, and one of the world´s biggest coal producer and consumer. Coal plays a very important role in the primary energy consumption structure and it will remain for a long time. Energy resource in China is complete in variety, rich in deposits, but uneven in distribution. Among the total annual electricity generation, mostly being coal-fired. Evidently, power plants will become the biggest coal consumer. There is a broad market of energy saving technologies in China. China´s energy consumption per unit output value is 4 to 5 times that of developed countries. China has large potential for energy conservation. Future energy conservation in China relied on the adjustment of economical structure, increasing the plant scale of industry sectors, and improving the thermal efficiency of energy transfer and utilization
