Abstract

The key point of China's energy conservation is power. With continuous expansion of the power industry in China, power consumption receives increasing attention from the government. This paper introduces the changes of energy consumption of China's power industry and analyzes the energy saving effect. Electric energy can be saved mainly by the generation side and the supply side through the following ways: Shutting down small thermal power units, reducing energy loss in power supply and line loss rate, and developing renewable energy, which have contributed to energy saving and pollution reduction in China.
