1. Increased demand: With the rapid economic growth in China, the demand for diesel fuel for industrial production, transportation and infrastructure construction is increasing. Especially heavy trucks, construction machinery and agricultural machinery, the demand for diesel oil continues to rise.
2. Supply shortage: China's diesel production capacity may not be able to meet the increasing demand. This may be due to insufficient production capacity of refineries, limited supply of crude oil or other reasons. In addition, the government of China is increasingly demanding environmental protection, and some refineries with high pollution and high energy consumption may be restricted or closed, which may also lead to tight diesel supply.
3. Policy impact: The government's adjustment of energy structure and the implementation of environmental protection policies may also have an impact on diesel supply. For example, the government may restrict the use of diesel to reduce air pollution and carbon emissions, thus affecting the supply and price of diesel.
4. International market fluctuation: The fluctuation of global crude oil market will lead to the fluctuation of crude oil price, which will further affect the price of diesel oil. If the price of crude oil rises, the price of diesel oil will also rise, which may lead to a shortage of diesel oil.
5. Unexpected events: natural disasters, geopolitical conflicts and other factors may also lead to tight diesel supply. For example, the 20 1 1 Japan earthquake and tsunami caused a shortage of diesel supply in Japan, which further affected the global diesel market.
In response to the national diesel shortage, the government and industry can take the following measures:
1. Increase diesel supply: increase diesel supply by increasing refinery capacity, optimizing crude oil procurement channels and promoting biodiesel to meet market demand.
2. Energy conservation and emission reduction: encourage enterprises to improve energy efficiency and reduce their dependence on diesel. For example, promote new energy vehicles and improve engine efficiency.
3. Optimize the transportation structure: adjust the transportation structure, reduce the dependence on road transportation, increase the proportion of railway, waterway and other modes of transportation, thus reducing diesel consumption.
4. Strengthen the reserve and regulation: improve the oil reserve system, improve the government's ability to regulate the oil market, and reduce the impact of market fluctuations on diesel supply.
5. Promote clean energy: vigorously develop clean energy such as solar energy, wind energy and nuclear energy, reduce dependence on fossil fuels, and thus alleviate the shortage of diesel oil.
