Abstract: Although Henan is a province with rich energy resources, it has become a net energy import province since the late years of the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan(2006-2010)”. An analysis of the resources and their support ability in Henan Province shows that the coal resources play a decisive role, and the range of the upper limit of the installed thermal capacity that the resources can support is thus determined. It is proposed that in order to promote the sustainable energy utilization, the coal and water resources and the environmental capacities outside the province should be fully utilized and the proportion of the imported power shall be increased through utilizing the existing and planned coal transportation channels. The study results of this paper can provide a reference for formulating the medium-and long-term energy development strategy of Henan Province.
