According to the incomplete statistics of Zhongyu Information, since 2009, due to the overall boost of domestic demand and the continuous advancement of the country's western development, the demand for polypropylene in the southwestern region has increased significantly, and the growth rate has increased at an annual rate of 5%. According to a survey of merchants in the southwestern market, the demand accounted for in 2014 rose from 6% to 6.5%. With the continuous deepening of the western development, local construction such as the transformation of urban and rural power grids and systems, the demand of the rural market will be significantly released, and there is still a large room for improvement in the later period.

Zhongyu Information analyst Luo Wei said that energy strategy is related to the future development of the energy industry and production layout, and affects energy investment decisions and management operations. The 2nd Asian Advanced Energy and Chemical Technology Conference was held in Xi'an on November 4, 2015. The conference pointed out that my country’s modern coal chemical industry will still have a large room for development during the 13th Five-Year Plan period. During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, modern coal chemical industry still focuses on demonstration (blog, Weibo), and must implement national industrial policies and implement the "Guiding Opinions on Standardizing Coal-to-Fuel Demonstration Work" and "Coal-to-olefin Industry The technical indicators such as energy consumption proposed in the draft for comments such as "Regulations" must also study and predict market trends and grasp market dynamics.

The western region is still the main position of my country's energy production, and the layout of energy production will continue to move westward. According to the country's "five bases and two belts" concept, in the future, five major energy bases will be built in Northeast, Shanxi, Ordos, Southwest and Xinjiang, and two energy development belts will be developed for nuclear power and offshore. The overall requirement for coal development to "control the east, stabilize the middle, and develop the west" is still dominated by 14 large coal bases. Give priority to the development of bases in eastern Inner Mongolia, Huanglong and northern Shaanxi, consolidate and develop bases in Shendong, Ningdong, and Shanxi, restrict the development of bases in eastern Jizhong, Luxi, Henan, and Lianghuai, and optimize the development of Xinjiang bases. The central region (including the Northeast) maintains a reasonable development intensity, and appropriately builds resource-exhausted coal mine production continuation projects in accordance with the "retreat, build, and build" model.

Luo Wei said that it is undeniable that due to resource endowments, the status of coal as my country's main energy source will not change in the future, and the clean and efficient use of coal will also receive greater attention. The National Energy Administration even pointed out that "promoting the clean and efficient use of coal and the development of clean energy must be placed at equal importance." In addition, due to restrictions on environmental protection and water resources, the country has always maintained a cautious attitude in the development of the coal chemical industry; furthermore, limited by modern coal chemical technology, the commercialization and large-scale development of coal chemical industry is not expected to occur in the short term. Strategic supplements and technical reserves are still dominated by robust project demonstrations.

In recent years, coal-to-polyolefin production capacity will continue to increase rapidly. As of the end of 2015, the total coal (methanol)-to-olefin production capacity has been put into operation at 4.41 million tons per year. From a later point of view, with the launch of the national coal clean development call, coal chemical industry is still a hot spot for development for a long time in the future. With the continuous development of coal-to-olefins in the northwest region, the western region is still the main area for the expansion of polypropylene. The development of the industry from east to west and from ports to inland will become the new normal of the polypropylene industry. The southwestern region will become a battleground for this polypropylene capacity expansion.

Luo Wei said that only from the current situation, the domestic coal chemical industry will continue to develop at a relatively high speed. The local production capacity in Southwestern China is relatively small, and its ability to control the market is slightly weak. Under the impact of low-priced foreign products, its polypropylene market It is difficult to make a final conclusion at the moment who will die. For the market, the healthy competition of many companies will promote the diversification of the polypropylene market in Southwest China, and local companies may be able to seize and consolidate their market share.
