First half of the industrial economic operation has stabilized
This year, the face of the complicated and grim economic environment at home and abroad as well as traditional industrial restructuring brought about by downward pressure, the State Council correctly grasp the trend, scientific decision-making, precise control, Duocuobingju industrial economy to the good overall showing stabilization operational state, the most prominent: the production stabilization, near-optimal structure, efficiency is getting better.
Industrial production showed stabilization of the situation
In the first half, above-scale industrial added value increased by 6%, the growth rate of the previous year. From nearly four quarter situation, within the 2015 third and fourth quarter growth of industrial production were 5.9% in the second quarter this year, an increase of 5.8% and 6.1%, respectively, for four consecutive quarters in a small range around 6% fluctuation, showing industrial production growth significantly enhanced stability. From the relevant indicators in the first half of industrial growth in electricity demand of 0.5%, 0.3 percentage points faster than the first quarter, the first half of last year fell 0.4%.
Further increase in the number of industrial products to maintain growth. It is well known industrial enterprises in production activities are mainly processing and manufacturing all kinds of different products for the essence of social service, a measure of industrial production growth is to reflect the change in volume of industrial products. According to the 567 kinds of major industrial products in kind production statistics, the number of products in 2015 to achieve production growth of 286 species, accounting for 50.4% in the first half of this year, the number of products reached 361 kinds of growth, accounting for 63.7%, the number increased significantly, indicating support stable growth of industrial production strength has been enhanced.
