As a landmark new window for China’s coal industry to engage with the world, the 2026 Global Coal Industry Expo, World Coal Science and Technology Innovation Conference, Global Coal Import & Export Conference (the “2026 Global Coal Expo”) carries the hopes of coal professionals worldwide. It embodies China’s coal industry’s confidence as it transitions from scale-led to value-driven growth, and serves as a core bridge connecting China with global coal markets.

The 2026 Global Coal Expo (June 10–12, Shanghai New International Expo Center) is positioned at the highest level of ambition and scale. It breaks the limitations of traditional exhibitions to create a full-industry-chain platform integrating technology exchange, trade facilitation, policy interpretation, and international cooperation — writing a new chapter in the high-quality development of the coal industry.

Building the Foundation of a Platform: Consolidating Full-Chain Strength to Create an Industry Gravity Hub

Setting the bar high from the outset, the 2026 Global Coal Expo demonstrates the strength of a new industry benchmark: an expected exhibition area of 50,000 square meters, bringing together 1,000+ exhibiting companies worldwide, attracting 30,000 professional visitors from 50+ countries and regions — including international mining conglomerates, global traders, central enterprise procurement delegations, and technology service providers — creating a powerful magnetic field where exhibiting means connecting, and attending means seizing opportunities.

The Expo’s breakthrough lies in building a uniquely comprehensive full-chain empowerment system that resolves the industry pain points of “all talk, no show” and “all show, no connection.” With coal at its core, the expo covers intelligent mining equipment, mine safety and environmental protection, coal chemicals, clean coal utilization, coal exploration, coal import/export trade, logistics, transportation, and financial services — enabling one-stop resource integration for all exhibitors and visitors.

“At this Global Coal Expo, we can not only see the latest technologies, but also connect directly with procurement delegations from central enterprises such as China Energy and China Coal, and negotiate face-to-face with international mining giants from Indonesia and Australia. This full-chain matchmaking model makes us truly excited about participating,” said the head of a seasoned coal equipment company.

Targeted policy support further energizes the 2026 Global Coal Expo. In collaboration with China’s coal industry associations, the organizer will interpret policy directions and development plans under the dual-carbon targets, while providing visa assistance and multilingual services for international exhibitors, a branding zone for SMEs, and one-on-one buyer matchmaking services.

Leveraging Technology as a Blade: Breaking Through Transformation Challenges and Amplifying the Innovation Theme

Amid the wave of energy transition, the coal industry is undergoing a profound shift from scale-based dividends to value-based dividends — and technological innovation is the core engine driving this transformation.

Throughout the expo, intelligence and greening will be the defining themes. In the Technology Innovation Zone, smart mine monitoring systems will display real-time underground operations, capable of rapidly detecting safety hazards such as gas and dust, improving detection efficiency by over 50%. Driverless mining trucks, intelligent tunneling machines, and digital twin mine systems will be on display, showcasing the future of unmanned mining. Technologies that once relied on imports have now become a hallmark of China’s coal industry, and the 2026 Coal Expo will showcase this technological strength to the world.

Clean utilization is another core highlight. A dedicated CCUS Technology Zone and Mine Ecological Restoration Zone will showcase carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), mine water treatment, and solid waste resource utilization. Domestically developed low-energy-consumption CCUS technology has already achieved large-scale application, effectively reducing carbon emissions and supporting dual-carbon goals. Mine ecological restoration technology has transformed former derelict mine sites into green landscapes, achieving a win-win for ecological protection and industrial development.

The concurrent World Coal Science and Technology Innovation Conference will bring together global experts to discuss intelligent mining, green low-carbon development, and digital transformation. New product and technology launch sessions will form a complete closed loop from technological breakthroughs to promotional showcase to industrial application.

From intelligent upgrades that boost production efficiency, to green technologies that resolve development bottlenecks, to premium products that break international monopolies — the 2026 Coal Expo is not only a stage for technology showcase, but an incubator driving the transformation and upgrading of the coal industry.
