    In recent years, Pakistan has been mired in the dilemma of "double deficit" of fiscal deficit and trade deficit, so the introduction of China's advanced coal power to replace imported oil and gas has become a top priority for Pakistan to stabilize the macroeconomy and make up for the gap between domestic power supply and demand
    .

    In this context, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor agreement signed by President Xi Jinping during his visit to Pakistan in April 2015 has a planned installed capacity of 16.
    4 million kilowatts, of which the first phase of coal-fired turbine assembly capacity is 10.
    4 million kilowatts, which is almost half
    of Pakistan's current national installed power capacity (21 million kilowatts).
    At present, the coal-power integration project of Thar coalfield block II with a total investment of 2 billion US dollars has been signed on December 21, 2015; The Thar coalfield Block I coal-power integration project, with a total installed capacity of 1.
    32 million kilowatts, will also be undertaken
    by Chinese enterprises.

    Under the framework of the "Belt and Road", China's export of advanced coal mining and coal power technology is equivalent to partially replacing oil and gas consumption demand, weakening oil demand growth, thereby suppressing oil prices
    .
    Due to the economic structure, the same economic increment in emerging markets can usually bring more energy and raw material demand increase than the economic increment of developed economies, and several emerging market economies with the largest growth potential and the largest population in the world replace oil and gas power generation with coal power on a large scale, which is a major negative factor
    that cannot be ignored for the oil market and oil-exporting countries.
    If fuel vehicles are replaced by the model of "high-efficiency coal power/nuclear power/hydropower + electric vehicles", the impact on oil demand will be further aggravated
    .

    Under the framework of the "Belt and Road", the export of advanced coal mining and coal power technology will also help drive China's related manufacturing exports
    .
    In an open market environment, the best way for China's manufacturing industry and many service industries to enhance competitiveness and market control is to rely on the innate advantages of economies of scale brought by the huge domestic market to enhance their international market position; The large-scale upgrading of domestic coal power can itself create a huge domestic demand market for the domestic power equipment manufacturing industry, and the progress of the transformation target proposed in the Action Plan for Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction Upgrading and Transformation of Coal Power (2014-2020) has been quite ambitious: strive to eliminate more than 10 million kilowatts of backward thermal power units by 2020; Comprehensive energy-saving transformation strives to complete the transformation of 150 million kilowatts of unit capacity by 2015, and 350 million kilowatts during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period.
    .
    .
    The National Energy Administration and other departments held on January 15 "Accelerate the promotion of coal power ultra-low emission and energy-saving transformation mobilization conference" further accelerated the progress, the competent authorities proposed to extend the requirements for the eastern region to the national conditional areas, the eastern region transformation task to be completed before 2017, the central and western regions should also be completed
    before 2018 and 2020 respectively.

    In addition, if China can actively and steadily export advanced coal mining and coal power technology under the framework of the "Belt and Road", it will be very beneficial
    to consolidate and enhance the "quacks" of China's power equipment manufacturing industry in the global market.
    If the "high-efficiency coal power/nuclear power/hydropower + electric vehicle" model can be promoted in the host country to replace fuel vehicles, it will also help drive the export
    of China's electric vehicle vehicles and parts, charging piles and other products.
