According to the latest Q3 2026 (August 2026) data from DataTrack, the cumulative month-over-month (MoM) growth rate of China's secondary industry electricity consumption dropped significantly from the previous value of 0.1308% to -5.2907%, indicating a notable cooling in short-term industrial electricity consumption momentum.

The market is paying close attention to the structural transition effect of "the new rising while the old falls."
