It has created “Ningguo Miracle” since 1990s. Its general economic capacity has been ranked #1 (the first) among all the counties or cities in Anhui Province since 2000. In order to analyze the influencing factors of competitive advantages of Ningguo City and explain “Ningguo Miracle”, this article have evaluated, analyzed and classified the general economic competitiveness of 61 counties (cities) in Anhui Province in 2004, by 14 indexes of evaluation index system. The result showed that compared with other counties (cities) in Anhui Province, Ningguo City has more advantages in competition. The competitive advantage of Ningguo City is due to the productivities, the effect of the second industry and industry, and the investment of fixed assets. Then the influencing factors of Ningguo’s competitiveness in terms of productivity were analyzed with authoritative data since 1990 and a log linear regression model was established by stepwise regression method. The results demonstrated that the key influencing factor of Ningguo City’s competitive advantage was the change of industry structure, especially the change of manufacture structure.

Additionally, Hubei Province is well-known for its diverse landforms, including mountains, hills, mounds and plains. This area is called “The Province of Thousand Lakes” due to the abundance of water resources. Geographical names are exclusive names given to physical or anthropogenic geographic entities at specific spatial locations and are important signs by which humans understand natural and human activities. In this study, geographic information systems (GIS) technology is adopted to establish a geodatabase of geographical names with particular characteristics in Hubei Province and extract certain geomorphologic and environmental factors.

  • The Trade War and China's Oil and Gas Supply Security
    HIGH ANXIETY: THE TRADE WAR AND CHINA’S OIL AND GAS SUPPLY SECURITY BY ERICA DOWNS NOVEMBER 2019 “If Oil Supplies Are Cut Off, How Much Oil Does China Have?” —Cover of the June 15, 2019, issue of China Petroleum & Petrochemical1 “Is China’s Oil Supply Still Secure?” —Cover of the August 15, 2018, issue of China Petroleum & Petrochemical2 Introduction In summer 2018, China’s president Xi Jinping, facing pressure from the US-China trade war, intervened in a long-running debate within China’s oil industry about the extent to which national security concerns or market forces should determine domestic oil and natural gas production. Xi effectively tipped the scales in favor of advocates of prioritizing self-sufficiency over cost as part of a broader push for self-reliance amidst trade tensions. As a result, China’s national oil companies (NOCs) are accelerating investment in domestic exploration and production. While this ramp-up in spending is likely to result in an increase in output, especially of natural gas, it is unlikely to alter China’s substantial and growing reliance on oil and natural gas imports. However, the trade war probably will continue to contribute to shifts in the composition of China’s import portfolio, with both traditional and new suppliers gaining shares as a result of the slowdown in the flows of US liquified natural gas (LNG) and crude oil to China and decreases in deliveries of Iranian and Venezuelan crudes due to US sanctions. Xi instructed China’s NOCs to ramp up domestic exploration and production of oil and natural gas to enhance national energy security in July 2018.

  • Coal Mine Methane Country Profiles, Chapter 7, June 2015
    7 China 7.1 Summary of Coal Industry 7.1.1 ROLE OF COAL IN CHINA Coal accounts for 69 percent of total national energy consumption in China (EIA, 2014a). Ranking first in the world in production of coal, China exported 16.5 million tonnes (Mmt) of coal in 2011; a sharp decline from a peak of 108.8 Mmt in 2003 (EIA, 2014b). Historically, a net coal exporter, China became a net coal importer in 2009 for the first time in more than two decades (EIA, 2014a). Table 7-1 provides recoverable reserve and recent coal production data for China. Table 7-1.
