Recently, a delegation from the Hefeng Industrial Park Management Committee, the regional investment promotion bureau, and the Hubeikseer County Party Committee in the Tacheng region of Xinjiang Autonomous Region visited Shaanxi Coal and Chemical Industry Group Co., Ltd. to discuss the progress of the 15 million tons per year demonstration project for the clean and efficient conversion of coal at Xinjiang Chang’an Energy & Chemical’s Hefeng Industrial Park. It is reported that the 15 million tons per year demonstration project for the clean and efficient conversion of coal into various products, carried out by Xinjiang Chang’an Energy Chemical Co., Ltd. and the Hefeng Industrial Park, was funded and constructed by Shaanxi Coal and Chemical Industry Group Co., Ltd. Leveraging the high-quality coal resources available in the Baiyanghe mining area as well as the existing infrastructure in the Hefeng Industrial Park, this project takes advantage of Shaanxi Coal and Chemical Industry Group’s expertise in coal pyrolysis and tar hydrogenation technologies. It involves the construction of facilities for coal pyrolysis, tar hydrogenation, gasification and purification of water-coal slurry, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, and LNG storage and transportation in the Hefeng Industrial Park of the Tacheng region. The total investment for this project amounts to 35.32 billion yuan. By the end of 2017, the Taicheng Coal Quality-Specific Utilization Project of Xinjiang Chang’an Energy Chemicals had been included in the reserve projects under the coal quality-specific utilization section of the **Energy Administration’s ‘13th Five-Year Plan for Demonstrative Projects in Advanced Coal Processing’ (Guo Neng Ke Ji [2017] No. 43)**. The project feasibility study report has been completed, and the relevant supporting documents required for approval have been prepared in full. The project is scheduled to be approved in 2018, with the goal of starting construction by the end of the 13th Five-Year Plan period. At the discussion session, Sun Ximin, deputy general manager of Shaanxi Coal Group, said that in recent years, **the economy has changed, which has had an impact on the development of the energy industry. The introduction of policies such as those aimed at reducing coal production capacity, along with the increased emphasis on environmental protection, have imposed new requirements on the evaluations related to the Tacheng project. Shaanxi Coal Group will unswervingly implement its strategy to enter Xinjiang. Through research and inspections of related enterprises in recent years, Shaanxi Coal Group has become aware of these changes and is adjusting its strategies accordingly. Shaanxi Coal Group will base itself in the local area and the autonomous region, while expanding its operations outward; it will take into full account factors such as the local economy, market conditions, and industrial structure, and actively participate in the economic and social development of the region. Through participation, gain a deeper understanding of the local area and plan for better development. Based on the characteristics of the local market and the industrial structure, a technical approach is selected and an appropriate economic scale is determined. With a scientific approach, issues related to prices, the market, project timelines, and policies are considered systematically. By leveraging the project’s synergistic mechanisms, and adhering to positive attitudes and scientific principles, efforts are made to accelerate the overall progress of the project, with the goal of completing the planning adjustments by 2018, so as to facilitate the rapid completion and operation of the project. Zhang Baodong, deputy commissioner of the Tacheng Administrative Region in Xinjiang, said that Shaanxi Coal Group has invested a great deal of effort in the research and evaluation of the coal chemical project in Hefeng County, paying attention to every detail as well as the strategic aspects of the project, and he expressed his gratitude for this. During this meeting, the two sides discussed the project in detail. The discussion was issue-oriented, featuring thorough exchanges and open communication, which played a significant role in facilitating the progress of the project. To fully push forward the implementation of the project, Tacheng Region will establish a timeline for the relevant issues discussed in the talks, and advance the project in a scientific and rational manner. Shaanxi Coal’s strategy of entering Xinjiang remains unwavering, and it reflects the social responsibility of state-owned enterprises to support Xinjiang and develop its economy; there are many points of overlap between Tacheng and Shaanxi Coal Group in terms of development. It is hoped that Shaanxi Coal will seize this opportunity to carry out more exchanges and cooperation with the Tacheng region, building on the progress made in advancing the implementation of the Yuefeng Coal Chemical Project.
