Last year, Shanxi provided 620 million tonnes of thermal coal for another 24 provincial-level regions in China, according to the provincial statistics bureau.

Building such terminals is also to fulfill its commitment to carbon reduction and carbon neutrality, said Chu Bin, Party chief of the Tianjin Port Group.

Northeast China's Heilongjiang province saw its foreign trade in goods grow by 33 percent year-on-year to 265.15 billion yuan ($39.44 billion) in 2022, customs data showed.

The daily crude steel output stood at 1.93 million tonnes in early January, according to the China Iron and Steel Association.

This year, Inner Mongolia will also step up the clean and efficient use of coal, Wang said.
