The total investment of 160 billion RMB for the Rongsheng (Ordos) Green Coal Chemical Integrated Project is set to commence soon! On October 15, Wang Guoquan, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Zhunhuaqi, held discussions with Rongsheng Group Vice President Ni Xincai and Zheng Guodong regarding the initiation of the Rongsheng Green Coal Integration Project. County leaders Qiao Aiping, Du Yanbin, and Wang Min, as well as relevant officials from Rongsheng Group and local departments, participated in the meeting. In the meeting, Ni Xincai and Zheng Guodong expressed their sincere gratitude to the Party Committee and government of Zhunhuaqi for their support of the project. Building on the previous collaborative efforts, they outlined further plans for the early implementation of the n-butanol and acetate ester projects and the swift commencement of construction on the gasification island and site leveling work. They emphasized the goal to complete site leveling during the winter and the first quarter of next year, and proposed plans for advancing subsequent projects related to coal-to-oil, coal-to-gas, and coal-to-olefins. Wang Guoquan warmly welcomed the representatives from Rongsheng Group, stating that the Party Committee and government will continue to fully support and comprehensively serve the project construction. They will provide all-round, "nanny-style" support for critical aspects such as site leveling, infrastructure assurance, and procedural handling to ensure the smooth progress of the project.
Project Overview: In March 2024, Zhejiang Rongsheng Holdings Group's two large coal chemical projects were officially filed in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, marking the formal launch of the projects. The filing information indicates that both projects are undertaken by Rongsheng Energy Technology (Inner Mongolia) Co., Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zhejiang Rongsheng Holdings Group. They include the "New Chemical Materials Project" and the "Coal-to-n-butanol and Acetate Projects," both approved on March 1, 2024. On September 23, 2024, Rongsheng Energy Technology (Inner Mongolia) Co., Ltd. won the exploration rights to coal resources in the "Hadatu Coalfield" in Zhunhuaqi after 269 rounds of limited bidding, marking significant progress for the Rongsheng (Ordos) Green Coal Chemical Integrated Project. This auctioned "Hadatu Coalfield" is located in Zhunhuaqi, covering an area of 59.4392 square kilometers, with detailed exploration achieved. The planned construction scale is set at 8 million tons per year, making it a large mine with a service life of 72 years, providing quality and sufficient raw material coal guarantees for the integrated coal chemical project in Zhunhuaqi.
In October 2024, a meeting was convened by Wang Guoquan to promote the Rongsheng Green Coal Chemical Integrated Project. In October 2024, three parties - Zhejiang Rongsheng Holdings Group, Mansi Investment Group, and Zhunhuaqi Guoxing Energy Group - reached a consensus on the handling of cooperation project procedures and related infrastructure support, signing a project investment cooperation agreement. On October 15, 2024, the Ministry of Natural Resources approved the adjustment of the development boundary plan for Zhunhuaqi. From January 2 to 4, 2025, Zhao Shuan, Deputy Secretary of the Zhunhuaqi Party Committee and Acting Flag Mayor, led a team to meet with Zhejiang Rongsheng Holdings Group to discuss project construction matters. Both sides agreed to expedite the approval process for coal-to-gas, coal-to-oil, and integrated coal chemical projects, as well as the transition from coal exploration rights to mining rights, aiming to resolve blockages and accelerate the construction of established projects. In April 2025, Zhunhuaqi, Rongsheng Group, and Mansi Group held discussions to expedite the implementation of the Rongsheng Green Coal Chemical Integrated Project, indicating further acceleration of the project. In September 2025, a meeting was held in the Zhunhua Economic Development Zone regarding the regulatory integration and approval of the coal-to-natural gas and coal-to-olefins projects. Ultimately, the three parties agreed that the Phase I investment of 31.4 billion RMB for the coal-to-n-butanol and acetate project is planned to commence construction by May 2025, while the Rongsheng Green Coal Chemical Integrated Project is set for full construction in 2026, according to the design and construction plans.
The Rongsheng (Ordos) Green Coal Chemical Integrated Project explores a new path for the coupled development of new energy and coal chemical industries, accelerating the transition of coal chemicals to "low-carbon" and "zero-carbon" production. With a total investment of 160 billion RMB and a planned land area of about 28 square kilometers, the project aims to establish a complete industrial chain for coal-based new materials, with an annual production capacity of 6.5 million tons. In addition to developing the coal chemical industry chain, it will also construct 2000 MW of renewable energy facilities, green hydrogen at 100,000 m³/h, and green ammonia at 450,000 tons/year, with expected annual industrial output exceeding 150 billion RMB. The final products will include over 20 types of new chemical materials, including methanol, olefins, and downstream extensions such as polyolefins, special rubber, and carbon fiber, with an expected annual coal conversion of 35 million tons. The project also includes the construction of raw coal mines for material use and 4 billion cubic meters of coal-to-natural gas, while simultaneously planning for ultra-high voltage electricity transmission and gas export projects.
