On August 1, Wang Renfei, director of the Comprehensive System Reform Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the construction of a unified national market has achieved remarkable results. From January to April, the country's inter-provincial trade sales accounted for 40.4% of total sales revenue, an increase of 0.6 percentage points over the same period last year. Electricity traded across provinces and regions across the country increased by 18.2% in the first half of the year, accounting for an increase of 2.6 percentage points over the same period last year in market-based electricity transactions. These data reflect that transaction costs in the market are being reduced and resource elements are being optimally allocated on a wider scale. In the next step, the National Development and Reform Commission will play a good role as a leading department to study and formulate action plans to further promote the construction of a unified national market.
