老铁们，今儿聊个让西伯利亚棕熊都瞪眼的硬核消息！中国国家能源集团去年挖煤6.2亿吨，单家产量直接碾压美俄总和，硬生生把"黑金帝国"的招牌挂上 了世界之巅！更狠的是新疆准东煤田两座露天矿年产6500万吨，挖煤速度比高铁还快——这哪是煤矿？分明是给地球做CT的工业印钞机！今天就带大伙儿 看看，中国煤矿军团咋把美俄百年挖煤史撕成了过时教科书！ 亿吨矿区的"钢铁洪流" 国家能源集团手里攥着97座煤矿，采掘机一响黄金万两，机械化率直接拉满100%。神东矿区17座矿井年产2亿吨，补连塔煤矿单井年产量怼到2800万吨，这 挖煤速度啥概念？每分钟60吨煤块往外喷，装车皮能绕赤道两圈半！更绝的是准东露天矿，矿坑面积74平方公里，挖出来的不粘煤直接给发电厂当"工业口 粮"，3500万吨年产能硬是干成了亚洲单体矿王。 美俄现在啥水平？ 美国全年煤炭产量卡在4亿吨出头，俄罗斯勉强摸到5亿吨门槛，两家捆一块还没咱国家能源集团单挑的产量高。当年毛子捂着库兹巴斯煤田当传家宝，现在 看咱家准东矿区的无人驾驶矿卡，GPS定位精度5厘米，夜间作业照常飙车，西伯利亚的老矿工眼镜片都得惊掉！ 重组狂潮炼出"黑金巨兽" 2017年那场世纪大合并，国电 ...

美国曾幻想将中国从"神坛"上拉下，然而中国始终稳如泰山，面对美国暂停油气进口，我们的能源供应几乎未受影响，反而让特朗普的能源大亨们心痛不 已。这一反制策略精准而强硬，而美国为何如此焦虑？中国是如何做到毫不畏惧的呢？ 今年2月，中国对美国的原油和天然气加征关税，初期税率在10%到15%之间，而到了4月，这一数字直接跃升至145%。这一强硬措施使得美国的能源出口几 乎无缘进入中国市场，按照常理，这种情况下国内能源供应应该会出现一些波动，但实际情况却令人惊讶。4月28日，国家发展改革委副主任赵辰昕在新闻 发布会上简洁地表示"没有影响"，看似简单的表态，实际上透露着中国在能源领域的雄厚底气。 据透露，中国从美国进口的油气量大幅下降，液化天然气（LNG）已连续两个月零进口。然而，这点美国的油气量对中国庞大的能源体系来说，根本不算 什么。全球市场上的供应商多如牛毛，沙特、俄罗斯、卡塔尔、澳大利亚等国都能随便提供所需。3月和4月，全球经济疲软，原油需求下降，油价也出现下 滑，中国趁机大举采购，库存堆得满满的。国际能源署数据显示，到2025年初，全球原油供应将依然保持宽松，而OPEC的减产策略又为中国的能源采购提 供了足够的 ...

Core Insights - The massive power outage in Spain and Portugal on April 28, 2025, resulted in a sudden loss of 60% of electricity demand, plunging 50 million residents into chaos [1][3] Group 1: Causes of the Outage - The reliance on renewable energy sources has created vulnerabilities, with Spain's wind and solar power accounting for 67% of its energy mix, but only 0.8 GW of storage capacity available [5] - The Iberian Peninsula's energy isolation was exacerbated by limited interconnections with France, which only provided 12% of total demand, and damage to transmission towers due to wildfires [5] - A failure in the digital monitoring system led to a misinterpretation of warning signals, preventing timely emergency responses [5] Group 2: Economic Impact - The outage caused significant economic losses, with small businesses like olive oil producers suffering inventory losses of 300 tons [7] - The tourism sector faced a crisis, with hotel cancellations in Barcelona increasing by 40% due to the outage [7] - Global supply chains were disrupted, notably affecting production timelines for companies like Volkswagen in Germany [7] - Moody's warned that Spain's GDP growth could decline by 0.8% as a result of the outage, with potential downgrades to the EU's green bond credit ratings [7] Group 3: Lessons and Future Considerations - The incident highlighted the contradictions in Europe's energy transition, where aggressive policies to achieve carbon neutrality have not been matched by necessary infrastructure investments [9] - Aging infrastructure in Portugal and Spain poses risks, with 40% of Portugal's substations over 30 years old and Spain's high-voltage lines being among the oldest in the EU [9] - The crisis serves as a reminder that energy transition must be grounded in safety and reliability, rather than solely political aspirations [11][12]

Core Viewpoint - The approval of 10 new nuclear power units in China marks a significant development for the nuclear power sector, indicating a shift towards a high-growth cycle in the industry, driven by increasing investment and a focus on clean energy [1][4][5]. Investment and Market Dynamics - The total investment for the newly approved 10 nuclear units is expected to exceed 200 billion yuan, with each unit requiring approximately 20 billion yuan [1][10]. - Despite the positive news, the market response has been muted, with the Hong Kong nuclear power sector experiencing only a modest increase of 2.19% on April 28, followed by declines in subsequent days [1][3]. - The current phase is characterized as a pre-release of commercial performance, with core suppliers facing tight production schedules, which may delay the reflection of performance expectations in stock prices [3]. Industry Growth and Future Outlook - The nuclear power sector is anticipated to enter a prosperous period due to the resumption of project approvals since 2019 and the continuous approval of nuclear projects since 2021, leading to a backlog of orders for related companies [1][4]. - By 2025, China's operational nuclear power capacity is projected to reach 65 million kilowatts, with a goal of increasing the share of nuclear power in the energy mix to 10% by 2035, doubling from 2022 levels [9][10]. - The government has committed to a steady increase in nuclear power approvals, with plans to approve 11 units in 2024, indicating a return to normalized approval processes [5][8].

核电，又有新动向。 4月27日，国务院常务会议决定核准浙江三门三期工程等核电项目。 在确保安全的前提下，加快核电项目审批，传递出怎样的信号？ 审批节奏加快。 从2019年开始，国内核电审批节奏明显加快。 2019-2021年，分别核准核电机组4台、4台、5台。2022年和2023年，连续两年均核准了10台，2024年更 是一口气核准了11台，加上此次新核准的10台，近四年每年核准10台及以上。 其实，"加快"还出现在顶层文件中。2024年8月，中共中央、国务院正式对外发布《关于加快经济社会 发展全面绿色转型的意见》，出现了"加快……沿海核电等清洁能源基地建设"的表述。 为什么加快？答案很简单，核电的优势明显。 相比其他发电方式，核电机组的年发电利用小时数常年保持在7000小时以上，位居所有电源之首，而且 在生产过程中不排放二氧化硫、氮氧化物、烟尘和二氧化碳。 会议强调，发展核电必须确保安全万无一失，要压实参建单位和业主单位主体责任，按照全球最高安全 标准建设和运营核电机组，持续加强安全监管能力建设，切实兜牢核电安全保障网。 据《中国能源报》报道，此次核准涉及5个核电项目的10台机组。 2024年，我国核电发电 ...
