Recently, Sichuan Provincial Bureau of statistics released data that from January to March, the added value of industries above Designated Size in Sichuan increased by 8.1% year-on-year (the following growth rates of added value are the actual growth rates after deducting price factors), which is 1.6 percentage points higher than that of the whole country, ranking 14th in the country and 5th among the ten major economic provinces.

From the perspective of the five major economic zones in Sichuan, the added value of industries above Designated Size in Chengdu Plain Economic Zone increased by 8.5% year-on-year, 8.7% in southern Sichuan Economic Zone, 5.2% in Northeast Sichuan Economic Zone, 10.3% in Panxi economic zone and 6.2% in Northwest Sichuan ecological demonstration zone. The industrial growth rate of panxi’an economic zone exceeds the “double-digit”, ranking first among the five major economic zones.

Opening the development “territory” of panxi’an economic zone and “industry taking the lead” are the key to “running fast” of panxi’an economic zone.

According to the relevant person in charge of the Statistics Bureau of Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, two 10 billion hydropower stations, Baihetan Hydropower Station and Wudongde Hydropower Station, were officially put into operation for power generation in the second half of last year. “Thanks to this, the added value of Liangshan power production and supply industry increased by 30.5% in the first quarter of this year, driving the added value of industries above Designated Size in the whole Prefecture by 13.5 percentage points.”

In the first quarter, industrial production continued to recover. The added value of industries above designated size increased by 12.7% year-on-year, ranking first in the province, and the product sales rate of Industrial Enterprises above designated size was 96.7%. From January to February, industrial enterprises above Designated Size realized a total profit of 2.97 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 24.3%.

Coincidentally, Panzhihua, as one of the “twin engines” of Panxi Economic Zone, has a strong driving force for industrial development.

In the first quarter, the added value of industries above Designated Size in Panzhihua increased by 7.8% year-on-year, and the product sales rate of Industrial Enterprises above designated size was 96.8%. By industry, the cumulative added value of 24 of the 31 industry categories showed a growth trend, with a growth rate of 77.4%. At the same time, industrial efficiency has improved steadily. From January to February this year, industrial enterprises above Designated Size achieved an operating revenue of 35.09 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.7%, and a total profit of 3.71 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.6%.
