On the 8th of the month, a special meeting was held in Dali Industrial Park to mark the full commencement of Inner Mongolia Yitai Coal-to-Oil Co., Ltd.’s 2 million tons per year coal indirect liquefaction demonstration project. Han Tao, Secretary of the Party Working Committee of Daliu Industrial Park, presided over the meeting. Lu Jianjun, Yang Yongjun, and Yang Fusen, vice directors of the management committee, Zhang Zhigong, Chairman of Yitai Coal-to-Oil Company, Chu Zhenhui, General Manager of the same company, as well as heads of various functional departments in the park and relevant departments of the enterprises attending the meeting. The meeting heard Yi Tai’s report on the progress of the 2 million-ton coal-to-oil project, and discussed the relevant issues encountered during its implementation. The heads of departments such as the Party and Government Office, Finance Bureau, Development Bureau, Construction Bureau, Land and Resources Bureau, and Tax Bureau of the park spoke, addressing the specific issues in their respective areas of work. Han Tao pointed out that accelerating the progress of Yitai’s 2 million-ton coal-to-oil project is of great significance, as it relates to **energy strategic security as well as the high-quality development of the region and enterprises. The entire park will, as always, provide high-quality and efficient services for enterprise development and project construction, go all out to ensure the progress of these projects, actively assist in overcoming the difficulties and challenges that arise during construction, and strive to create a favorable environment for enterprise growth. At the same time, it is hoped that enterprises will further strengthen their confidence in development, work together to make concerted efforts, and strive to complete the project as scheduled at an early date. Zhang Zhigong, chairman of Yitai Coal-to-Oil Company, said that he is deeply grateful for the care and support provided to Yitai by various departments at all levels within the industrial park. The company will go all out to accelerate the construction of the projects, striving to contribute to the high-quality development of the local economy and society.
Coal is a non-renewable resource, right? If millions of tons are extracted each year, not to mention the impact on the environment, what will happen when energy becomes scarce in the future?
There is a large amount of coal underground in Ordos, and at the current rate of extraction, it will not run out even in hundreds of years. The main issue is the depletion of water resources; the groundwater level has dropped to nearly -150 meters, and the water from the Yellow River poses a serious threat to agricultural production in the lower reaches.

Itai’s 160,000 tons per year coal indirect liquefaction plant has been in operation for over 10 years now, and the company has finally decided to expand its use of this indirect liquefaction technology. It seems that Itai has managed to overcome some challenges related to energy efficiency, the conversion rate of coal, and the overall performance of the plant; hopefully, it will be successful.
According to a report, ‘using water to determine coal production’ is the fundamental principle for the development of the coal industry. However, in Ordos, the coal chemical industry competes with local residents for water as well as with the grasslands, and the phenomenon of \"coal taking precedence over people\" is becoming increasingly severe. Persisting in developing coal chemical industries despite the depletion of water resources will inevitably lead to irreversible negative consequences for the ecosystem and people’s livelihoods. ”

**There is still too little oil and too much coal; the energy structure is unreasonable and unstable. It is therefore necessary to develop coal-to-oil technology. However, areas with large coal reserves suffer from water shortages, and this issue can only be addressed by finding ways to achieve a balance
There’s plenty of coal, so there’s no need to worry; it’s just that there’s little water along with the coal
