Coal prices on the market have been high, while electricity tariffs are fixed by the government, which has put great pressure on the country's power generators.
The government should keep its controls over the supply and price of coal used for power producers, especially in areas where there is a supply shortage.
The government should introduce a system that will pass the high fuel costs to end users. Otherwise, electricity producers will suffer severe losses as fuel prices fluctuate.
Related government bodies should come up with more practical targets of China's gas power development.
