Power usage upturn underscores dynamic economic rebound

China's economy is demonstrating a powerful recovery, with daily power usage recently reaching a record high 1.5 billion kilowatt-hours, which industry experts believe is a clear testament to the vitality and resilience of the world's second-largest economy.

This significant upturn underscores a vigorous and dynamic economic rebound, demonstrating a broad-based revitalization now clearly evident across the industrial, commercial and residential sectors, said Lin Boqiang, head of the China Institute for Studies in Energy Policy at Xiamen University.

On July 16, the National Energy Administration said that China's maximum power load once again set a new historical record, surpassing 1.5 billion kW for the first time and reaching a peak of 1.506 billion kW.
