Teen solves centuries-old math problem
BEIJING, Sept. 22 (UPI) -- China's coal reserves have reached a record 29.33 million tons.
According to the Ministry of Railways those reserves are distributed across 353 major power plants, Chinese news agency Xinhua reported.
The average amount of coal reserves is between 23 million and 24 million tons.
"Reserves are sufficient to ensure current electricity generation. Although some small plants are still short of coal due to various reasons, the severe power coal shortage of the previous months is expected to ease as a whole," said Zhang Zhonghua, an analyst with Orient Securities.
Part of the reason for the extra coal reserves could be China's efforts to cut back on coal burning and reduce the number of new coal power plants.
