China will shut down small thermal power units totaling 10 millionkWs (10,000MW) in capacity this year, said Nanfang Daily, citing unnamed officials at the National Energy Administration. The closure is part of a government plan to improve fuel efficiency, according to the report. China has closed small thermal power units with a combined capacity of 64.17 millionkWs since 2006, it said, without saying whether the plants were fired by coal or oil. The world's second-biggest fuel user cut its energy use per unit of gross domestic product by 14.38% between 2006 and 2009, and plans to reduce consumption by 20 percent in the five years to 2010.
