最近几年 ,国内电力市场供需矛盾出现了低水平的暂时缓和。这里说低水平 ,是因为１９９８年我国人均发电量尚不足世界人均水平的４０ %。北京已步入了国际大都市的行列 ,１９９４年北京的夏季用电高峰开始出现 ,去年夏季用电高峰首次超过了冬季的最大负荷 ,这正是国际大都市用 In recent years, the contradiction between supply and demand in the domestic electricity market has experienced a temporary low level of easing. The low level here is due to the fact that in 1998 China’s per capita electricity generation was still less than 40% of the world average. Beijing has already stepped into the ranks of international metropolises. In 1994, Beijing’s peak summer electricity consumption began to appear. For the first time last summer, the peak of electricity consumption exceeded the maximum winter load for the first time. This is exactly what international metropolitan areas use.
