China will not set blanket winter output cuts for heavy industry

BEIJING - China’s central government will not set overall output restrictions on heavy industry for the coming winter, but will direct local governments to set limits based on manufacturers’ emissions, the environment ministry said on Friday.

Heavy industry includes steelmaking, coal-fired power plants, cement factories, coke plants, metal casting and chemical production. Last week, the statistics bureau in Shaanxi province, the latest target in Beijing’s anti-pollution campaign, said its industrial growth is under pressure, partly because nearly a quarter of firms in the regions were shut down or forced to cut output.
