Economy Qinhuangdao Port is a strategically important port on China and is the largest coal shipping port in the country, much of which is shipped to power plants elsewhere in China. With recent expansion, its capacity has reached 209 million metric tons. The harbor is also adding a further six berths to add further capacity and is increasingly being invested in by other port operators, such as South Africa's Richards Bay Coal Terminal, who have announced plans to invest US$150 million to increase capacity by at least 28 percent.China is also the worlds third largest coal exporter, and Qinhuangdao is expected to handle much of the nations coal exports. Rail links from Shanxi province (China’s largest coal producer) to Qinhuangdao Port are in the process of being upgraded, which should allow for Qinhuangdao to ultimately increase its throughput to 400 million tones of coal per annum from it’s current level of about 250 million tons by 2015.Other Chinese and foreign service suppliers are also moving to Qinhuangdao to support this.

扩展资料

秦皇岛之名的起源地是指今海港区东山，这是一座由风化花岗岩组成的剥蚀性残山，海拔20余米，方圆不足平方公里。今天与陆地连在一起的东山，在200多年前，还是一座名副其实的岛屿，直到19世纪末，随着港口的建设，岛屿才与陆地相连，成为大陆的一部分。

秦皇岛相传因秦始皇东巡至此而得名。秦皇岛之名最早见于明英宗天顺五年（公元1461年）杨琚《秦皇岛》一诗，其中有“古殿远连云缥缈，荒台俯瞰水潺湲”之句。

到清代，又有秦王岛之说。秦王岛之名最早见于康熙八年《抚宁县志》，其中有“秦王岛误秦皇岛，在县东七十里，四面皆水，惟岛居中，唐太宗征高丽驻跸于此，岛上荆条伏生。相传秦王下拜，伏。”

秦王岛之名传说与李世民征高丽回师途中经此地有关。至此之后，一直到民国年间，地方史志和文人诗作中，则将秦皇岛与秦王岛并用。
