Methanol Industry

Preface
Since 2002, China methanol market has been promoted by the downstream demand. Methanol manufacturing
enterprises begin to enlarge factories or build new factories, so as to sharply increase the methanol capacity.
The total output of methanol is up sharply annually. In 2010, China methanol capacity reached 37.57 billion
tons, and the output reached 15.75 million tons. And China has become the world’s largest methanol producer.

During the “eleventh five-year” period, China methanol apparent consumption continues to increase rapidly.
In 2010, it reached 20.93 billion Yuan, with an annual increase of 25.66%, 5.62% higher that the growth rate
of methanol output. From 1997 to 2010, the annual growth rate of global methanol demand was 4.7%. It’s
predicted this growth rate will increase to 7.4% from 2011 to 2015. So to speak, the China’s fast demand for
methanol makes an important contribution to the world’s methanol industry. Besides, the statistics shows,
China imported 5.18 million tons of methanol in 2010, increased by 5.1 times over the year of 2007. China
has also become the world’s major methanol market.

There are always a series of preferential factors in China methanol industry. It’s predicted the newly increased
methanol capacity will reach 11.10 million tons. Whereupon, the methanol production capacity will reach 48
million tons. It’s predicted the methanol demand volume will reach 21.82 million tons in 2011 and it will
reach 26.46 million tons.

The national macro-economy is basically great. In overall, China industrial economic shows a good pattern,
with fast growth of production, improved benefit conditions, gradually optimized structure, and fast recovery
of export. The trend of shifting from industrial economy operation to steady growth is basically established.
According prediction from Center for China in the World Economy, Tsinghua University, China’s domestic
GDP growth rate was 9.2%. And China economy continues to be in a growth trend, which supports the
development of methanol market.

The downstream demand keeps rising. The fast development of automobile industry, architecture industry,
and decoration industry will drive the strong growth of methanol and its downstream products. The officially
implementation of Vehicle Methanol Gasoline (M85) marks the methanol gasoline has entered a substantial
application stage. Meanwhile, a national standard of Vehicle Methanol Gasoline (M15) will be officially
released soon. The prospects of methanol gasoline market is worthy of looking forward to. In addition, all
places are devoting to methanol-to-olefin (MTO) projects, and MTO is anticipated to become a new engine

for the development of methanol industry.

The cost support is strong. During the “twelfth five-year” period, the State council will emphasize to deepen
the energy price reform, adjust the price of natural gas, promote the power ladder price, and strictly
implement different price policy for the high-energy consumption industries, which belong to the limitation
and elimination industries category in the structure adjustment directory. The uprising of coal, natural gas,
electricity, transportation and other cost prices will play a certain supporting role in methanol price.

At present, the investment of China methanol industry increases greatly. Therefore, it’s very necessary to
establish large-sized methanol manufacturing device, lower manufacturing cost, and vigorously develop
downstream products of methanol, so as to develop it into a direction of diversification, series and fine.
Moreover, it’s also necessary to join in the international competition. On one hand, thealcohol ether adapts
the needs of China’s development, with low comprehensive cost, and it has a certain kind of production and
application experience, so the acceleration of promoting and using alcohol ether will be prosperous. On the
other hand, the alcohol ether will drive the development of energy, chemical, automobile and other relevant
industries.

In addition, the promotion of methanol futures in 2011 will be beneficial for the healthy development of
methanol industry, On one hand, it will enhance the methanol market to form a unified pricing model; on the
other hand, it will beneficial for the steady development of methanol relevant enterprises. And according to
this, the operational decision thinking of relevant methanol enterprises can make adjustment, and the
enterprises can utilize methanol futures to maintain their steady development.
