Coal news and updates

China Taiyuan coal transaction price index stood at 138.05 points Monday, down 1.10 percent week on week.

 

The index, released by China Taiyuan Coal Transaction Center (CTCTC) based in Shanxi, a coal-rich province, reflects the coal price levels and changes in the main production areas of China. It is published every Monday.

 

Analysts said that with the temperature around the country gradually rising recently, the daily coal consumption level of power plants had slightly decreased, and the demand for fuel coal procurement by power companies was limited.

 

With more than 10,000 registered coal traders, the CTCTC is the largest coal trading center in China.
