In 2021, the key words of coal production regions:

　　﹒ Both annual and monthly production hit record highs

　　﹒ Chongqing withdraws from coal mining, and the number of coal-producing provinces drops to 23

　　﹒ 100 million tons province reduced by 2

　　﹒ The output of 6 million-ton coal-producing provinces has all increased, and the output of Shanxi is close to 1.2 billion tons

　　﹒ 11 provinces with more than 50 million tons of production accounted for 95.5%

　　﹒ The total output of provinces below 10 million tons is less than 1% of the country

　　In recent months, under the premise of ensuring the safety of coal production, the major coal-producing provinces have implemented the coal supply guarantee work layer by layer. According to the latest data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, the production of raw coal for the whole year and the monthly output in December both hit record highs, adding a strong touch to the role of coal as a ballast in my country's energy security.

　　1. Annual and monthly national raw coal production hit a record high

　　According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2021, the raw coal output of coal enterprises above designated size in the country was 4.07 billion tons, a year-on-year increase of 4.7%; compared with 3.974 billion tons in the previous year of the country's highest raw coal production (2013), an increase of 96 million tons and a record high .

　　In December 2021, the raw coal output of coal enterprises above designated size reached 380 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 7.2%, and the monthly output reached a record high.

　　2. The output of the 6 million-ton coal-producing provinces has all increased

　　In 2021, there were 6 provinces with coal production above designated size exceeding 100 million tons. Among them, Shanxi (1.193 billion tons) and Inner Mongolia (1.039 billion tons) both exceed 1 billion tons; Shaanxi (700 million tons), Xinjiang ( 320 million tons), Guizhou (131 million tons), Anhui (113 million tons), the total output of the six provinces was 3.496 billion tons, an increase of 6.68% year-on-year, accounting for 85.9% of the raw coal output of coal enterprises above designated size in the country, and the proportion increased by 1.6% over the previous year. The output of the 6 provinces increased by 218.82 million tons year-on-year, accounting for 119% of the national increase.

　　In 2021, there were 11 provinces with an annual output of more than 50 million tons, with a total output of 3.89 billion tons, a year-on-year increase of 5.5%, accounting for 95.5% of the national output.

　　The number of provinces with more than 50 million tons was the same as the previous year, but the structure changed. The number of provinces producing 100 million tons of coal decreased by 2 compared with the previous year. They are Henan Province (93.35 million tons in 2021, 105 million tons in 2020) and Shandong Province (93.12 million tons in 2021, 111 million tons in 2020). Correspondingly, the number of provinces with 50 million tons to 100 million tons increased to 5 (3 in the previous year). Among the 11 provinces, except Henan surpassed Shandong and its output ranking rose to 7th, the output ranking of other provinces did not change.

　　4. The output of provinces with output less than 10 million tons continued to decline

　　In 2021, Chongqing withdrew from the coal mining field, and the number of coal-producing provinces in the country was reduced to 23. The number of coal-producing provinces with annual output less than 10 million tons increased to 8, namely Jiangsu (9.343 million tons), Jilin (8.753 million tons), Hunan (7.234 million tons), Fujian (5.407 million tons) and Guangxi (2.797 million tons) , Jiangxi (2.134 million tons), Hubei (297,000 tons) and Chongqing (for comparability, including Chongqing), an increase of 2 over the previous year. Among the 8 provinces, the output of 6 provinces decreased, and the output of 2 provinces increased.
