Group 1 - The core viewpoint is that the fundamental reason for the frequent global power shortages is the rapid growth in global electricity demand, while the supply side's structural bottlenecks have not been effectively resolved. Traditional energy generation, represented by coal power, will remain a stabilizing force in the global electricity system in the medium to long term [1][3] - Global electricity demand is expected to grow at a rate of 4.4% in 2024, significantly outpacing the global GDP growth of 2.9%. This growth is driven by three deep-seated factors: deep electrification in the industrial sector, rapid expansion of data centers driven by artificial intelligence, and increased extreme weather events due to global climate change [1][2] - The supply side of the electricity market faces structural bottlenecks, with renewable energy sources like wind and solar power unable to provide stable support for electricity demand due to their intermittent nature. Issues such as aging grid infrastructure and weak regional dispatch capabilities further exacerbate the disconnect between electricity generation and availability [2][3] Group 2 - Traditional energy generation, particularly coal power, is being reconsidered as a necessary stabilizing force to address the growing electricity supply gap. The U.S. is expected to restart coal power generation in 2025, marking a significant shift in energy development strategies among developed countries [3] - The demand for coal resources remains high in developing countries, while developed countries are also adjusting their energy strategies, indicating that the peak pressure for coal phase-out may have passed [3]

Investment Rating - The report maintains an "Overweight" rating for the coal sector, highlighting the sustained demand for coal in the global energy landscape [5][11]. Core Insights - The fundamental cause of frequent global electricity shortages is the rapid growth in electricity demand, which is not matched by effective solutions to supply-side structural bottlenecks. Traditional energy sources, particularly coal, remain crucial for the stability of the global electricity system in the medium to long term [3][11]. - Global electricity demand is projected to grow at a rate of 4.4% in 2024, significantly outpacing the global GDP growth of 2.9%. This growth is driven by three main factors: deep electrification in industrial sectors, rapid expansion of data centers driven by artificial intelligence, and increased electricity demand due to extreme weather events caused by climate change [9][15][27]. Summary by Sections Investment Recommendations - The report suggests that the pressure on coal resources may have peaked, and it anticipates a continued increase in global coal demand over the next 5-10 years. Recommended companies include China Shenhua, China Coal Energy, Shaanxi Coal and Chemical Industry, Yanzhou Coal Mining, and Jinneng Holding Group [11][12]. Global Electricity Demand Growth - The report notes that global electricity demand is expected to grow significantly, with emerging economies maintaining high growth rates and developed economies beginning to recover. By 2024, electricity demand in China is projected to increase by 6.8%, contributing 54% to global demand growth [19][20]. - The International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts that global electricity demand will continue to grow at an average annual rate of 3.3% in 2025 and 3.7% in 2026, despite potential slowdowns due to trade tariffs and economic uncertainties [15][19]. Global Electricity Supply Challenges - The report highlights that the supply side has not effectively addressed structural bottlenecks, leading to frequent electricity shortages. Despite significant investments in renewable energy, issues such as aging grid infrastructure and inadequate energy storage systems hinder the effective absorption and utilization of new clean energy sources [10][55]. - The report emphasizes that traditional coal-fired power generation remains a critical stabilizing force in the global electricity system, especially as developed countries like the U.S. are expected to restart coal power generation to meet rising electricity demands [11][56]. Traditional Energy's Role - Coal power is projected to continue playing a vital role in the global energy landscape, with the U.S. expected to see a 6% increase in coal consumption by 2025. This shift indicates a potential adjustment in energy strategies among developed nations [11][56]. - The report also notes that while the share of coal in global energy generation is decreasing, it still represents the largest source of electricity generation globally [11][56].

Investment Rating - The report maintains a "Positive" investment rating for the coal industry [11]. Core Insights - The report emphasizes that the systematic increase in coal costs over the past decade has solidified the safety margin for coal prices, with current cash cost support for port thermal coal prices at approximately 550 RMB/ton [3][9]. - It highlights that the coal price bottom is unlikely to return to the low levels seen in 2015, reinforcing the profitability and dividend safety margins for coal companies [3][9]. Summary by Sections Introduction - The report introduces the importance of cost research in establishing the safety margin for coal prices, indicating that a high cost-supported price bottom can enhance dividend value [6][20]. Overall Cost Trends - Over the past decade, coal company costs have increased by nearly 50%, with a CAGR of approximately 4% [6][24]. - The weighted average sales cost for coal in 2024 is projected to be 300 RMB/ton, down 2% year-on-year, while the complete cost is expected to be 380 RMB/ton, down 3% year-on-year [6][24]. Cost Structure - The cost structure for coal companies in 2024 is composed of labor costs (32%), other expenses (30%), raw materials (14%), depreciation (12%), safety costs (9%), and manufacturing costs (3%) [7][41]. - Labor costs, depreciation, and safety expenses have seen the most significant increases over the past decade, with labor costs rising by 28 RMB/ton [7][41]. Cost Curve Analysis - The cash cost curve for port thermal coal has shifted, with the 90th percentile cash cost now supporting prices around 550 RMB/ton [8][9]. - The complete cost curve for thermal coal has also increased, with the 90th percentile complete cost now between 370-423 RMB/ton [8][9]. Investment Recommendations - The report suggests that the systematic increase in costs has solidified the safety margin for coal prices, recommending several companies for investment based on their resilience and growth potential [9][11]. - Recommended companies include Yanzhou Coal Mining Company, Jinneng Holding, and China Shenhua Energy [9].

Investment Rating - The report maintains a "Recommended" rating for the coal mining industry [1] Core Viewpoints - The coal price has reached a bottom, leading to a potential investment opportunity as prices rebound alongside low sector congestion [1][12] - The performance of the coal mining sector in the first half of 2025 has been negatively impacted by falling coal prices, with significant declines in revenue and profit for major coal companies [33][36] - Despite the challenges, the report suggests that the current market pessimism regarding coal prices has been largely priced in, indicating a potential for recovery [12] Summary by Sections 1. Overview of H1 2025 - In H1 2025, the coal supply-demand balance was loose, resulting in a decline in the average coal price [19][21] - The total revenue for 28 key coal companies was CNY 553.918 billion, down 17.8% year-on-year, with net profit dropping 31.5% to CNY 72.284 billion [33][36] - Coal production increased by 1.6% to 615 million tons, while sales volume decreased by 1.8% to 561 million tons [50] 2. Financial Performance - The average sales price of coal fell by 20% to CNY 480 per ton, while the average cost decreased by 9% to CNY 306 per ton, leading to a 33% drop in gross profit [5][8] - The average gross margin for the 28 coal companies was 36%, down 7.4 percentage points year-on-year [8] - Operating cash flow decreased by 27% to CNY 1,042.20 billion, with a slight increase in the average debt-to-asset ratio to 53.2% [9][12] 3. Market Dynamics - The coal price for Q2 2025 continued to decline, but signs of recovery were noted in Q3 due to seasonal demand and supply constraints [10][12] - The report highlights that the coal sector's low congestion levels and high dividend yields present a compelling case for bottom-fishing investments [12] 4. Investment Strategy - The report recommends focusing on companies with strong fundamentals and cash flow, such as China Shenhua, Shaanxi Coal, and Yanzhou Coal [12][14] - It emphasizes the importance of monitoring the evolving supply-demand dynamics and potential policy impacts on the coal market [12][19]
