In the face of the severe coal generation overcapacity and slowing electricity demand growth in China recently, NRDC held the 4th Roundtable on the role of coal power in the 13th Five Year Plan. The meeting started with an outlook of electricity demand-projected to be weak-in the 13th FYP, and arrived at the conclusion that in order to effectively manage coal capacity, planning for coal-fired generators, and electricity markets to generate price signals would both be pivotal to directing future energy investments, thus calming down the current coal capacity addition on high gear.
