This dialogue opened new avenues for future cooperation and development in the chemical field.

Consulting on Coal Transition — Focusing on Clean and Efficient Utilization

The Dongxu Energy Investment team was invited to attend a technical exchange conference on coal chemical industry between China and Russia, hosted by the Russian Coal Industry Research Institute.

In the context of global energy transition and the "dual carbon" goals, promoting clean and efficient coal utilization has become an important issue in China’s energy strategy. During this seminar, Sinopec Energy focused on the latest developments and practical experiences in cutting-edge industry technologies, such as clean and efficient coal utilization and intelligent mining technologies.

The two sides exchanged valuable opinions on topics such as optimizing the coal industry chain and improving resource utilization efficiency, all within the context of ensuring energy security and promoting green transformation. This in-depth industry exchange provided Dongxu Energy Investment with important insights into the path of Russia's coal industry transformation and upgrading.

University-Enterprise Collaboration — Deepening International Innovation and Technology Cooperation

The final stop of this inspection trip was a visit to the Siberian State Industrial University.
