Management Committee of Xinjiang Zhundong Economic and Technological Development ZoneThe Xinjiang Zhundong Economic and Technological Development Zone Administrative Committee is a national-level economic and technological development zone administrative body approved by the State Council. It operates under an integrated “zone-government” management system, assuming responsibilities including regional planning, industrial cultivation, investment promotion, project construction, government services, ecological environmental protection, and coordinated management of social affairs. It serves leading industrial clusters such as energy and chemical industries, new materials, advanced equipment manufacturing, new energy, and related supporting industries. Leveraging proven coal reserves exceeding 3.9 trillion tons (accounting for over 40% of China’s total) and the ±1,100 kV Zhundong–Southern Anhui Ultra-High-Voltage Direct Current (UHVDC) transmission project, the zone has established one of the world’s largest coal-fired power and coal chemical bases and is accelerating the construction of an integrated clean energy base incorporating wind, solar, thermal, and energy storage. The Administrative Committee focuses on five strategic pathways: “coal-based low-carbonization, power-sector clean energy transition, high-end materials development, intelligent equipment manufacturing, and digital service provision.” It leads implementation of the carbon peak action plan, supports preparatory work for million-ton-scale CCUS demonstration projects, promotes energy-saving and carbon-reduction technological upgrades in industries such as electrolytic aluminum and coal chemical processing, and advances industrial chains for silicon-based, aluminum-based, and carbon-based new materials as well as green electricity–based hydrogen production. The zone has been designated a National High-Tech Industrialization Base, a National New-Type Industrialization Demonstration Base (Coal Chemical Industry), and a National Circular Economy Transformation Demonstration Pilot Park; it has also obtained ISO 14001 Environmental Management System and ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System certifications. Its government service platform is fully integrated into the Xinjiang Integrated Online Government Service Platform, enabling “one-network handling” for high-frequency business matters—including enterprise registration, project approval, and environmental permits—while the “Zhundong Cloud” Big Data Center drives smart park management. Its “ultra-streamlined approval + full-chain agency service” reform experience has been listed by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) as a typical practice for optimizing the business environment. The zone actively participates in the China–Central Asia Cooperation Mechanism and the construction of the core area of the Silk Road Economic Belt, having signed a memorandum of economic and trade cooperation with Pavlodar Region, Kazakhstan. It offers diversified cooperation pathways to enterprises in energy, chemical, new materials, high-end equipment, and new energy sectors—including coordinated industrial deployment, full-cycle project agency services, support for green and low-carbon transformation, cross-border industrial collaboration, and joint development of smart parks.
