Large coal chemical province to build "national methanol economic demonstration zone"

On June 10, 13, and 14, Shanxi Province held three consecutive press conferences on "A Package of Policy Measures to Stabilize the Economy"
.
It was learned from the press conference that Shanxi, a major coal chemical province, will speed up the upgrading and transformation of coking and coal chemical industries, build a national methanol economic demonstration zone, and promote the high-end, diversified and low-carbon development of modern coal chemical industry
.

Ma Yunxia, ​​deputy director of the Shanxi Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology and a first-level inspector, introduced that Shanxi Province will speed up the upgrading and transformation of the coking and coal chemical industries
.
It will comprehensively promote the "two lines and two levels" benchmarking transformation of enterprises, and promote the high-end, diversified and low-carbon development of the coking and coal chemical industries
.
Promote the coking industry to "go up and down", actively promote the replacement of coking capacity, support the high-end extension of the coking production and deep processing industry chain, encourage enterprises to extend downstream of the coke oven gas hydrogen production chain and other industrial chains, and strive to improve the level of industrial development
.
Accelerate the development of hydrogen energy and methanol pilot projects
.
Deploy hydrogen energy industrialization application demonstration projects and explore hydrogen production from renewable energy
.
Provide financial support for the construction of qualified hydrogen fuel cell vehicle production, hydrogen fuel cell and hydrogen energy key parts manufacturing and other projects
.
Build a national-level methanol economic demonstration zone, accelerate the construction of methanol vehicle production bases, promote enterprises to accelerate the research and development of new models, and achieve breakthroughs in the fields of automatic transmission methanol passenger cars and methanol medium and heavy trucks
.

Ma Yunxia said that Shanxi will accelerate the promotion of industrial enterprises in coking and other fields to restore normal production levels to ensure stable output of important primary industrial products
.
A "white list" system will be established for key enterprises in the industrial chain and supply chain, operation guarantee enterprises and other key enterprises to resume work and reach production, to help enterprises maintain smooth flow and help enterprises resume work and reach production
.
The "whitelist" companies will be rewarded in stages for the growth rate of output value from June to December 2022, to encourage companies to produce at full capacity and speed up production and efficiency
.

As a major coal-producing province, Shanxi has the foundation, advantages and prospects to develop the coal chemical industry
.
Zhang Xiang, spokesperson and deputy director of the Shanxi Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and director of the Provincial Taixin Economic Integration Development Promotion Center, introduced that Shanxi Province has studied and formulated the "Shanxi Provincial Regulations on the Promotion of Clean and Efficient Coal Utilization" to promote clean and efficient utilization of coal
.
The "Guiding Opinions on the Green and Low-Carbon Development of the Coal Chemical Industry in Shanxi Province" was formulated and promulgated, aiming to accelerate the construction of the national green coking industry base, promote the high-end extension of the coking production and deep processing industry chain, and support the development of high-purity hydrogen in the deep processing of coke oven gas, coal tar and crude benzene.
, fine chemicals, high-end carbon materials, high-end polyester materials, nylon new materials and other products
.

Zhang Xiang emphasized that Shanxi will deepen the increase of unconventional natural gas reserves and production, promote the comprehensive development of "three natural gas", and enhance the development of Qinshui (Panzhuang, Zhengzhuang), Linxian-Xingxian, Daning-Jixian and other blocks.
, to ensure the steady increase in production in coalbed methane development zones, promote rapid production ramp-up in tight gas development zones, and ensure the completion of the annual increase in unconventional natural gas production
.

Cai Jiangze, deputy director of the Shanxi Provincial Department of Finance and spokesman, pointed out that more and faster financial funds should be invested in key areas, key industries and major projects
.
Support the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries and the development and growth of emerging industries.
