As of November 14, the coal mine start - up rate in Ordos was 71%, and in Yulin was 46%. The daily coal output in Ordos and Yulin was over 3.9 million tons, and the overall domestic supply tightened. Imported coal prices rose despite weakening Chinese demand [4]. - Demand: This week's demand was average. Chinese procurement demand weakened, while procurement from Japan and South Korea was mediocre, and there was still no improvement in India's procurement demand. Most power plants were operating stably with a load of 60% - 70% and medium - to - high inventory levels. Most power plants preferred to fulfill long - term contracts, and only a small amount of rigid demand was purchasing at discounted prices [4]. - Market Outlook: With the arrival of a large - scale cooling wave, residential electricity and heating demand will rise, driving up power plant daily consumption. The railway transportation has returned to normal, with the average daily transportation volume of the Datong - Qinhuangdao line at 1.3 million tons and the number of approved carriages by the Hohhot Railway Bureau at around 30. As of November 17, the inventory at Bohai Rim ports was 23.9 million tons, at a neutral level over the years. Coastal power plants had low daily consumption but continuous inventory depletion, while inland power plants had neutral inventory. In general, coal production in major producing areas is low, supply is tightening, power plant inventories are decreasing, and coal prices are expected to slow down in the short term [4].
