Abstract :
Based on the summary of the methods of coal demand forecasting, this article conducts the empirical analysis of the impact of electric power production on the demand of coal of China through Granger causality test and simultaneous equations model and predicts the trend of Chinese coal demand. Then the article puts forward some suggestions to the policy of strengthening coal demand management.
