[National Energy Administration: The growth rate of electricity consumption in the whole society has stabilized and rebounded, and the demand for natural gas has increased slightly] Xing Yiteng, deputy director of the Development Planning Department of the National Energy Administration, said that in the first half of the year, the growth rate of electricity consumption in the whole society stabilized and rebounded. In April and May, the growth rate of electricity consumption in the whole society reached 4.7% and 4.4% respectively. In June, the electricity consumption in the whole society increased by 5.4% year-on-year. The demand for natural gas increased slightly, with urban gas being the main driving factor. Coal consumption decreased slightly, mainly due to factors such as warm winter weather and a significant increase in the output of new energy. The consumption of refined oil continued to show negative growth, and the substitution effect of new energy vehicles and liquefied natural gas (LNG) heavy trucks on transportation oil continued to emerge.
