In 2022, the "Three-Year Action Plan for Energy Efficiency Benchmarking in the Steel Industry" was officially launched. In the past two years, the Iron and Steel Association has actively carried out the cultivation and acceptance of the "Dual Carbon Best Practice Energy Efficiency Benchmarking Demonstration" to ensure that the ultimate energy efficiency project is implemented. This year, the Iron and Steel Association will accept the cultivation enterprises that submit the evaluation application form and evaluation report. In order to better carry out the acceptance work, on May 23, the "Dual Carbon Best Practice Energy Efficiency Benchmarking Demonstration" evaluation expert symposium of the steel ultimate energy efficiency project was held in Yancheng, Jiangsu, and the relevant matters of the acceptance work were discussed. Zhang Yongjie, executive director of the Iron and Steel Association, presided over the symposium.

It is understood that in March this year, the China Iron and Steel Association officially issued a document to recruit experts for the acceptance and review of the energy efficiency benchmark demonstration of the ultimate energy efficiency project of steel. A total of 185 experts from 55 units submitted the "Expert Entry Recommendation Form" and "Expert Commitment Letter". After the formal review of the application materials, the questionnaire expert review, and the comprehensive evaluation of professional fields, work experience and technical achievements, 106 experts for the acceptance and review of the energy efficiency benchmark demonstration of the ultimate energy efficiency project of steel were selected, of which 18 were selected for the acceptance and review secretary group.

At the expert symposium, Zhang Yongjie introduced the progress of the current acceptance work. Gao Xue, deputy chief engineer and director of the Energy Department of the Metallurgical Industry Planning Institute, interpreted the key points of the "Steel Industry "Dual Carbon Best Practice Energy Efficiency Benchmark Demonstration" On-site Verification Manual (Trial)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Manual"). Wang Xuewu from the Science and Technology and Environmental Protection Department of the Iron and Steel Association introduced the collection and summary of the expert questionnaires issued earlier. Zhao Zedong, energy director of Hegang Leting Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., made a special report entitled "Energy Measurement Based on Extreme Energy Efficiency". Shi Junjie, senior engineer of the Energy Department of the Metallurgical Industry Planning Institute, interpreted the key points of the group standard "Energy Efficiency Benchmark Evaluation Specifications for Key Processes of Steel Enterprises" (hereinafter referred to as the "Evaluation Specifications").

Afterwards, the participating experts spoke one after another and conducted in-depth and detailed discussions on the specific matters of the acceptance work. In the next step, the Iron and Steel Association will collect the opinions and suggestions of this symposium, further improve the "Manual" and "Evaluation Specifications", and better serve the acceptance work of cultivating enterprises.
