On March 10, the commissioning ceremony for the gas-water separation unit of **Energy Group’s 2 billion cubic meters per year coal-to-natural gas project in Zhundong was held in the Zhundong Economic and Technological Development Zone in Xinjiang. This project is a **demonstration project for the deep processing of coal industry, as well as a key construction project under Xinjiang’s 14th Five-Year Plan**, with a total investment of approximately 16.793 billion yuan. As a demonstration project for domestic integrated coal-to-natural gas technology, its key processes employ advanced domestic technologies and equipment, ensuring that the core technologies are under domestic control. The project includes plans for 1000MW of wind and solar power generation, 1GW of photovoltaic power used for hydrogen production, as well as CCUS technologies for carbon capture and oil enhancement via sequestration. This approach enables coordinated development of \"coal-to-gas production + green energy + carbon reduction,\" allowing for reduced energy consumption and carbon emissions while ensuring continued production. Upon completion, the project will enable an annual production of 1.833 billion cubic meters of natural gas, sufficient to meet the gas needs of 5.0228 million families of three members for one year, as well as 167 million cubic meters of liquefied natural gas. Leveraging Xinjiang’s abundant coal resources, the project will establish a modern coal-to-gas industry chain, injecting new momentum into regional economic development and providing important support for the transformation of the energy structure.
