energy crunch 能源危機
Power shortages that gripped many parts of the country in recent months could herald1 the worst energy crunch2 in years amid growing concerns that economic growth may suffer.
近幾個月來國內很多區(qū)域出現(xiàn)的電力短缺預示著將可能出現(xiàn)數(shù)年來最緊急的能源危機,有關經(jīng)濟增長會因此受阻的擔心也在加劇。
在上面的報道中,energy crunch即能源危機,指由于能源提供短缺或是價格上漲而影響經(jīng)濟,一般涉及到石油、電力或其他自然資源的短缺。能源危機一般會導致economic recession(經(jīng)濟衰退)。Crunch在這里的意思是(突發(fā)的)不足,短缺,比如credit crunch(信貸緊縮),supply crunch(提供緊張)。
自3月份以來,在部分省市開始出現(xiàn)power cut(停電)和blackout(斷電),緣由是price control(價格控制)、surging demand(需要上漲)和a drop in hydropower production(水電產量降低),F(xiàn)在國內為知道決能源危機,正在大力推廣新能源,并計劃建設new-energy model city(新能源示范城)。
