煤炭—电力价格联动与过渡性管制

Coal-electricity Price Linkage and Transitional Control

政府长期对电力、煤炭实行直接和间接的价格管制。由于管制,煤炭、电力长期低价位运行,煤炭相比于电力更甚。又由于煤炭—电力的相互依存关系,一直存在电力要让利,煤炭要减价的争论。化解争端的短期办法是依据CPI大小及社会承受能力实行煤炭—电力价格联动,并消去煤炭上涨的不合理因素,主要是运输、中间交易环节。长期来看,要放弃价格管制,让市场机制配置煤炭、电力资源。

This paper points out the fact that the government has been implementing a long-term coal and electricity price control, directly and indirectly. As the result of price controls, coal and electricity have been sold at low price, and coal price is lower than that of electricity. And the two sectors have also been quarrelling about price raising and cutting. So in this paper, we put forth a short-term and a long-term solution to settle the dispute. Based on CPI and the social price ceiling, the short-term one is the electricity take chain reaction with coal, i.e. , coal-electricity price linkage, in which we have given the detailed quantitative and qualitative analysis. The transitional control is to eliminate the unreasonable prices factors including primarily coal transportation, middle coal transaction fees. The long-term one is to abandon price controls, and let the market mechanism, especially price forming mechanism play a full role in coal, electric power resources distribution.
