In 2005, China totally generated 2474.7 billion kWh with a year-on-year growth rate of 12.8%, which is lower than 14.8% in 2003 and 13.6% in 2004 yet still increase by quite a large margin. In the aspect of power consumption, the year 2005 still saw fast growth but somewhat slowed down. The whole society of China consumed 2468.9 billion kWh of electric power in 2005 with a year-on-year increase of 13.5%, declining 1.4% compared to growth rate in 2004.
As the Chinese government leveled up the requirements of environmental protection and established the energy policies of "thrift first, self-in-dependent, taking coal as the basis to achieve multi-polar development and constructing a steady, economical and clean energy supply system" during the Eleventh Five-Year Plan (2006-2010), nuclear power generation, wind power generation, hydropower generation and other renewable energy power generation will speed up during this period.
