The index, released by China Taiyuan Coal Transaction Center (CTCTC) based in Shanxi, a coal-rich province, reflects the coal price levels and changes in the main production areas of China.
It is published every Monday. Analysts said due to the recent enhancement of hydropower generation, the start-up load of thermal power plants is still relatively low, which caused coal prices to fall slightly.
With more than 10,000 registered coal traders, the CTCTC is the largest coal trading center in China.
