The impact of power shortage on the machine tool industry and opportunities

In the summer, the "electricity shortage" has begun to become a key word. The lack of electricity supply is no longer an alarmist issue. Many national ministries have recently pointed out this concern in public. According to the data released by the National Energy Administration on June 14, the total social power consumption in April was 376.8 billion kWh, an increase of 11.2% year-on-year.

trouble?

As we all know, the vast majority of energy in China is converted by coal resources, especially electricity, and more than 70% comes from thermal power. The institutional contradiction of “market coal and planned electricity” has become increasingly prominent as coal prices have been rising. Under the background of inflation, the possibility of a substantial adjustment in electricity prices is less likely. The more power companies generate, the more losses they suffer, the more losses they suffer, and the more difficult it becomes. Finally, more and more power plants join camps that reduce loads and reduce power generation.

The machine tool industry is an industry with many electrodes. Taking a wire-cutting medium-sized machine tool as an example, it is generally 1.5 KW. If one day is calculated in 8 hours, the daily power consumption is 12 degrees. Not a large enterprise, even a small business, the electricity consumption of a day is already a considerable number. If a “power outage” farce comes at a critical moment, it will inevitably result in production stoppages, delaying the completion of project quantities, and causing huge losses and impacts on the entire industry. This power shortage will create many problems for the industry.

Business?

More and more power-saving energy-saving products have been gradually developed with the power shortage, becoming the new darling of the machine tool industry. On the one hand, reducing energy consumption and reducing costs, on the one hand, it can also skillfully cope with the power shortage. Therefore, the self-developed provincial motor bed tools have become popular, and customers are constantly rushing to buy.

More thinking?

To solve the “electricity shortage” issue, we must not only rely on the increase in the amount of electricity generated, we must also take a global perspective, focus on adjusting the energy supply structure, economic growth, industrial structure, and energy saving and consumption reduction factors, and control our growth rate in energy. The areas that can be carried by resources can speed up structural adjustment and accelerate the transformation of growth patterns.

When this high-energy-consuming industry can be transformed into an intensive economic structure, our country will not be far behind the goal of establishing a conservation-oriented society and a low-carbon society.
