According to statistics of Yulin City, in 2021, industries above the scale of Yulin City were affected by the rise in the prices of coal and other commodities, and the total industrial output value increased by 55.9% compared with the same period last year, and the added value increased by 9.3% year-on-year, which was 0.3% lower than that of the whole country and 1.7% higher than that of the whole province. ranking third among the ten districts and cities in the province. By category, the mining industry accounts for 81.4% of the city's regulated industry, and is the pillar industry of the city's industrial economic development. over the past year, the mining industry has always played the role of economic "ballast stone", laying a solid foundation for the city's regulated industrial growth, with an increase of 9.2% over the same period last year, driving the growth rate of the city's regulated industry by 7.1 percentage points.

Since the goal of "double carbon" was put forward, Yulin City has resolutely curbed the blind development of the "two high" projects and promoted the transformation of energy conservation and consumption reduction in key areas such as coking and metallurgy. As a result, the manufacturing industry has dropped 0.1% year on year and the international market energy prices have risen sharply since this year. Domestic electricity and coal supply and demand continue to be tight. In accordance with the arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, the city has taken a series of measures to strengthen energy supply and security. The role of "stabilizer" in the energy industry is further revealed. The added value of the city's energy industry increased by 9.7% over the same period last year, driving the regular industrial growth by 8.8 percentage points, providing an important support for the city's industrial growth. Among them: coal mining and washing industry, oil and gas mining industry, electric power, thermal production and supply industry drove the regulated industrial growth by 6.9%, 0.2% and 1.9% respectively. Among them, the output of coal, natural gas, electricity generation and other industrial products reached another record high under the influence of national policies such as ensuring energy supply and stabilizing commodity market prices, with 552 million tons of raw coal for the whole year, an increase of 6.2 percent over the same period last year; 21.415 billion square meters of natural gas, an increase of 1.9 percent; and electricity generation of 144.814 billion kilowatt-hours, an increase of 15.2 percent. The oil, coal and other fuel processing industries are affected by policies such as double control of energy consumption, which play a reverse role in pulling the industry of the whole city. In 2021, Yulin polyolefin, metal magnesium and other non-energy industries are faced with multiple internal and external complex factors, such as tight international energy supply, tighter domestic "energy consumption" double control policy, sharply higher upstream raw material prices, repeated epidemic situations in the fourth quarter, and so on. Enterprise production and operation is more difficult. Nevertheless, under the effect of various policies and measures taken by the Yulin municipal government to actively adapt to the new normal of external economic development, make full use of various favorable internal factors, constantly overcome new problems and difficulties in economic operation, and vigorously promote the optimal development of industry, the city's non-energy industry operated smoothly, achieving an annual increase of 5.4% compared with the same period last year.
