Is China’s Inner Mongolia Region becoming Manufacturing Hub for Graphite Electrode Industry?

Is China’s Inner Mongolia Region becoming Manufacturing Hub for Graphite Electrode Industry?
The graphite electrode (GE) consumption in China is increasing rapidly amid the supply-side reforms undertaken by the country. In its efforts to control overcapacity and curb rising levels of pollution, the Chinese government has ordered the closure of many polluting induction, blast furnaces and also GE units. At the same time, it is promoting usage of more electric furnaces to produce steel which requires graphite electrodes as key raw material. Thus this closure of GE units and promotion of EAFs has made graphite electrode industry in China as one of the main focus of investment.

China’s inner Mongolia region which is already a manufacturing hub for the country has attracted a large number of graphite enterprises over past one year due to its preferential investment policy and cheap electricity tariff. The region have about 15 ongoing projects including that of graphite electrodes, graphitization foundry, lithium battery anode materials and other related companies.

According to sources from the region, the capacity addition in case of graphite electrode is planned to be 330,000 tonnes, that of lithium battery anode material is 218,000 tonne and graphitization foundry is 16.2 MnT.

As in Jul`18, the progress of various projects was different but the declared graphite electrode projects are almost completed. Below is the detailed list of projects that are being carried in China’s Mongolian region:
