Note: Advanced international level is a particular term used in China to indicate the global
average of developed countries.

4In Chinese, 综合能耗 . This refers to the total energy consumption per enterprise to produce one tonne of product (copper, cement,
etc.). The enterprise may not cover the entire production process.
