As part of its efforts to achieve those goals, the country planned to close small, energy-intensive coal-fired power units with a total capacity of 50 million kilowatts between 2006 and 2010.

The aggregate capacity of closed small thermal units since 2005 had reached 25.87 million kilowatts, 51.74 percent of the targeted reduction, the National Energy Administration said Monday.

Most of the closed were in southern China's Guangdong Province, the eastern provinces of Jiangsu, Anhui and Shandong and central province of Henan.

The closure was estimated to save 32.6 million tonnes of coal and cut carbon dioxide emission by more than 550,000 tonnes each year.

Small units with a capacity below 100,000 kw burnt 400 million tonnes of coal in 2007, more than 30 percent of the total coal consumption by China's power plants. They produced 5.4 million tonnes of carbon dioxide in 2006, nearly 40 percent of the total emissions from the country's power sector.
