After preliminary investigation, the Houpu Village of Hepo Street reported by users is an area where the power supply system has not been straightened out, and there are problems such as prominent potential safety hazards, poor power supply quality, and chaotic power supply order in this area. In order to better serve the rural revitalization work and improve the reliability of power supply, the county government attaches great importance to it, and organizes the county development and Reform Bureau, Hepo Street and Jiexi Power Supply Bureau and other units to fully promote the reform of the power supply system, carry out the transformation of the power grid, and realize meter reading to households and the same price on the same network by the power supply department.
According to China City Daily, in 2023 alone, 11 provinces, including Beijing, Shandong, Hubei, Liaoning, Ningxia, Xinjiang, Gansu, Fujian, Hebei, Yunnan and Qinghai, will introduce new policies on time-of-use electricity prices. Among them, Shandong launched the "Notice on Further Optimizing the Time-of-Use Electricity Price Policy for Industry and Commerce" and the "Notice on Improving the Time-of-Use Electricity Price Policy" issued by the Fujian Provincial Development and Reform Commission to further promote the reform of transmission and distribution prices and widen the peak-to-valley price gap. Hubei Province issued the "Notice on Doing a Good Job in the Industrial and Commercial Time-of-Use Electricity Price Mechanism (Draft for Comments)", adjusting the industrial and commercial electricity price to the "noon valley electricity" model, forcing users to increase photovoltaic distribution and storage.
"It can be said that since 2023, the time-of-use electricity price-related policies in various provinces have bloomed, but from the overall trend, it mainly shows the widening of the peak-to-valley price gap and the increase in the penetration rate of 'two charges and two discharges' areas." Mr. Lu, who has been engaged in new energy investment for a long time, said.
Recently, the Anhui Provincial Development and Reform Commission and the Anhui Provincial Energy Bureau issued the "Notice on Further Optimizing the Peak-Valley Time-of-Use Electricity Price Policy and Other Related Matters", which adjusted the floating ratio of peak-to-valley time-of-use electricity prices and seasonal peak electricity prices. The new policy will be implemented from April 1, 2024, expanding the current two-month peak and trough time period of July and August to July, August, September, January and December.

First, the increase in fares for public utilities and high-speed rail is currently in its early stages, and as the mainland economy enters a new development model, public utilities companies may gradually transition to the direction of marketization, and prices may continue to rise.
Second, dividend stocks represented by utilities may usher in a systematic increase in valuation, because the overall price elasticity of this type of industry is small, consumption may be relatively less affected by price increases, and the logic of price increases may become a new support for dividend assets beyond "high dividends";
Third, the CPI hovered at a low year-on-year level in the early stage, and the year-on-year pull of public utilities and high-speed rail fares was limited, based on inertial thinking, market inflation expectations may continue to be low, but after the start of this round of price increase cycle, inflation expectations may be improved, and the imagination space for interest rates to decline will be narrowed.
