Rigid investment boosts coal demand recovery

At present, the environment at home and abroad is intricate and complex. It is manifested in the tortuous nature and arduousness of the global economic recovery. There are still some outstanding contradictions and problems in the domestic economic operation. In the face of downward pressure on the economy, a new round of "steady growth" policies and measures have been intensively introduced, and the key to "steady growth" is investment. China is still in the initial stage of urbanization, and there is still plenty of room for growth in infrastructure investment. For a long period of time, the rigid investment demand for water conservancy facilities and western construction may be one of the strongest drivers of China’s economic growth. Rigid investment focusing on infrastructure construction will also be an important driving force for pulling coal demand back up.
