There is only one reason for power restrictions and outages: excessive power consumption! The sudden increase in electricity consumption has already exhausted the annual power generation plan quota.

Why did the national electricity consumption suddenly surge? Ultimately, it is due to the impact of the pandemic. The spread of the epidemic has devastated the global economy, especially in processing kingdoms like India and Vietnam, where manufacturing has stagnated due to the out of control of the epidemic. So naturally, global orders flooded into China, and massive orders were thrown over, forcing Chinese manufacturing companies to work overtime and accelerate production at full capacity! While engaging in large-scale production, electricity consumption suddenly surged by 20.6%.

At this point, you may be surprised. Isn't it a good thing to focus on production? Massive orders promote the prosperity of foreign trade exports, which is a great thing! Why did you suddenly stop shouting?

The reason is correct, but at this moment, foreign trade is facing an awkward situation, mainly divided into:

1. The massive printing of money by the United States has caused global inflation and skyrocketed commodity prices;

2. The price of sea freight has increased sevenfold;

3. The price increase of small commodities cannot compare to the price increase of bulk commodities.

In the international trade system, there is an iron law: "Whatever China buys, it rises; whatever China sells, it falls

In 2021, coal prices doubled, and 70% of China's electricity generation relies on thermal power generation, which of course relies on coal. The skyrocketing price of coal has resulted in extremely high electricity generation costs for us.

However, the prices of the products we produce at full capacity have not increased much, and coupled with the 7-fold increase in shipping prices, the products we export may even be at a loss.

What's the use of taking on so many foreign trade orders when we use the high cost electricity we generate to produce unprofitable goods? This not only consumes our manpower and material resources, but also creates a huge crisis, so of course we need to stop it immediately!

Some small manufacturing enterprises, in order to make a profit of a few dollars, constantly increase their production efforts and constantly raise inventory. If the epidemic eases and foreign production resumes, our products will have to fall into our own hands, causing overcapacity, which is a big problem! Enterprises may suffer losses at the slightest, and in severe cases, they may go bankrupt in batches.

**The determination to restrict electricity is to force those enterprises with high investment, high energy consumption, and high emissions to complete industrial upgrading, actively step out of their comfort zone, and avoid falling into crisis.

We cannot work overtime, it takes time and effort to earn such a small amount of money; Others can easily control the prices of commodities and make huge profits!

Power rationing, endure temporary pain, and consider the overall situation!
