The General Office of the Shanghai Municipal People's Government issued the “Fifteenth Five-Year Plan for Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction and Circular Economy Development in Shanghai”. Among them, it is pointed out that by promoting low-carbon transformation of coal and electricity with ammonia, biomass, etc., it will be possible to achieve a combustion capacity of 10% or more by 2030. Coal-fired power generation companies are encouraged to prioritize the use of high-quality coal with high calorific value. Strengthen the total control of coal used for non-electricity, and accelerate the development and application of energy-saving and low-carbon technologies such as novel furnace materials, natural gas to replace injection coal, hydrogen-rich carbon cycle blast furnaces, and microwave sintering. Explore and develop pilot projects for hydrogen smelting technology, carbon dioxide resource utilization, and biomass carbon sequestration in gas-based shaft furnaces. Improve the level of cleaning of key processes and links in the steel industry, and reduce the use of coal for coking and injection.
