| Oct-21 | The State Council | Action Plan for Carbon Peaking Before 2030 | Deepen supply-side structural reform of the steel industry, strictly control new production capacity, promote capacity replacement, and phase out outdated capacity. Promote structural optimization and clean and efficient upgrading of the steel industry, accelerate the research and development of high-grade non-blast furnace ironmaking technology, improve the level of resource recycling, and fully promote full-process electric furnace steelmaking. |
| Nov-21 | Ministry of Industry and Information Technology | 14th Five-Year Plan for Industrial Green Development | By 2025, key industries including steel will achieve phased results in total emission control. Formulate implementation plans for the ultra-low emission transformation of key industries such as steel and coking, clarify the production processes or sequences for major pollutant emission reduction, and identify the paths for peaking carbon emissions and achieving carbon neutrality. |
| Dec-21 | Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Natural Resources | 14th Five-Year Plan for Raw Material Industry Development | By 2025, key industries including steel, non-ferrous metals, and building materials will achieve phased results in total energy consumption and emission control. The energy consumption per ton of steel in the steel industry will be reduced by 2%. |
| Jan-22 | The State Council | 14th Five-Year Plan for Comprehensive Work on Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction | Take steel, non-ferrous metals and other industries as key areas to advance energy conservation, emission reduction and pollutant treatment. By 2025, through the implementation of energy-saving renovation actions, the proportion of key industry production lines and data centers reaching the benchmark energy efficiency level will exceed 30%. |
| Jan-22 | National Development and Reform Commission, National Energy Administration | 14th Five-Year Plan for Modern Energy System | Strictly control coal consumption in major coal-using industries such as steel, chemical engineering and cement. |

| Feb-22 | National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Ecology and Environment, National Energy Administration | Key Areas of High Energy-Consuming Industries Energy Efficiency Upgrading Action Plan (2022 Edition) | By 2025, the proportion of steel industry’s ironmaking and steelmaking processes that reach the benchmark energy efficiency level will increase to over 50%, and those that reach the baseline level will basically be eliminated. The industry will achieve significant energy conservation and emission reduction results, and low-carbon development capacity will be greatly enhanced. |
| Jun 2022 | Ministry of Ecology and Environment & 6 Other Departments | Implementation Plan for Synergistic Reduction of Pollution and Carbon Emissions | Establish a long-term mechanism for controlling steel, coking and other industries under the constraint of total atmospheric pollutant emissions, and substantially reduce the number of independent coking and steel enterprises. Vigorously support the development of electric furnace short-process steelmaking, so that the proportion of national short-process steelmaking will increase to more than 15% and 20% by 2025 and 2030, respectively. |
| Jun 2022 | Ministry of Industry and Information Technology & Other Departments | Industrial Energy Efficiency Improvement Action Plan | By 2025, the energy efficiency of key products in industries such as steel and petrochemicals will reach the international advanced level, and the value-added energy consumption of industrial enterprises above designated size will decrease by 13.5% compared with 2020. |
| Jul-22 | Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Ecology and Environment | Implementation Plan for Carbon Peaking in Key Industrial Sectors | Promote steel and other industrial enterprises to implement systematic clean production covering energy conservation, water conservation, material conservation, pollution reduction, and carbon reduction. |
