针对我国目前煤炭产能的主要特点及问题，提出了煤炭科学产能的概念，以促进我国煤炭工业可持续发展，扭转目前我国煤炭生产“高危、污染、粗放、无序”的行业形象，并根据我国煤炭资源的特点，对我国煤炭科学产能的规模、布局和发展潜力进行了全面论述，同时预测了2030年、2050年前后的煤炭科学产能总量，提出了我国煤炭向科学产能发展的战略部署和措施建议。

Aiming at the current status and difficulties of coal mining, a new concept of sustainable capacity of coal mining was proposed in order to promote the sustainable development of China's coal industry and change its negative image of "high-risk, pollution, extensive mode and irregular industry" . On the basis of China's coal resources characteristics, the scale of coal production, layout and development potential were systematically analyzed. Moreover, the total amount of sustainable capacity of coal production in 2030 and 2050 in China were predicted. A strategic plan and initiatives of how to fulfill the target of sustainable capacity of coal mining were also suggested.
