On January 26, Fan Shunke, Vice Secretary of the Chinese Nonferrous Metals Industry Association and Chairman of the China Nonferrous Metals Fabrication Industry Association, led a delegation to the Indonesia Bintan Industrial Park. The visit focused on conducting specialized research into the overseas development strategy, production operations, industrial chain synergy, and green low-carbon initiatives of Nanshan Aluminum International and PT. Bintan Alumina Indonesia.

Hao Weisong, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Nanshan Aluminum International, extended a warm welcome to the delegation on behalf of the company. He provided a detailed overview of the geographic advantages of Bintan Island in the Riau Islands Province and the industrial park's development journey. Hao emphasized that as Indonesia's first economic zone developed and managed by an enterprise, the Indonesia Bintan Industrial Park has been steadily advancing since its planning commenced in 2015. Leveraging an integrated industrial chain model encompassing "port-power center-alumina-electrolytic aluminum," the park has now completed and put into operation its 4-million-ton alumina capacity and supporting facilities. Moving forward, the park will continue to extend its industrial chain, aiming to establish a comprehensive green aluminum production base integrating both alumina and electrolytic aluminum.

During the inspection, Deputy Secretary Fan and his team toured key operational areas including production workshops, the port terminal, water reservoirs, the park's dispatch center, and the corporate exhibition hall. They conducted a thorough review of the production status and green energy-saving emission reduction technologies in place. The delegation expressed high recognition for the park and the company's commitment to green, low-carbon development, their efforts in advancing aluminum industry upgrading, and their forward-looking approach to expanding into downstream industries.

At the subsequent symposium, Deputy Secretary Fan analyzed the current opportunities and challenges facing the global aluminum industry. Regarding the park's development, he offered several guiding recommendations: First, accelerate the extension of the industrial chain by fully advancing the progress toward commissioning of the 500,000 tons electrolytic aluminum project. Achieving integrated "alumina-to-electrolytic aluminum" production at the earliest opportunity will reduce overall costs through upstream-downstream synergy and enhance value addition and core competitiveness. Second, strengthen leadership in green and low-carbon practices by benchmarking against international top-tier environmental standards. Deepen the application of technologies such as clean energy substitution to establish a model green industrial demonstration base overseas. Third, enhance collaboration with the Association and other Chinese enterprises. Establish a regular communication mechanism to promptly address issues related to policy adaptation and risk mitigation in overseas industrial development, jointly promoting the formulation of international standards for China's aluminum industry and supporting its high-quality global expansion.

*The 500,000 tons electrolytic aluminum project planned within the park includes: the 250,000 tons electrolytic aluminum project of A-share listed company Shandong Nanshan Aluminium Co., Ltd. (stock code: 600219.SH) and the 250,000 tons electrolytic aluminum project of Hong Kong-listed company Nanshan Aluminium International Holdings Limited (stock code: 2610.HK).

Vice Secretary Fan emphasized that the Indonesia Bintan Industrial Park serves as a successful model of Chinese enterprise investment in Indonesia. It has contributed to local economic growth, improved livelihoods, and talent development in the region, setting a precedent for win-win cooperation between China and Indonesia. He expressed hope that the park will continue to leverage its industrial chain synergies, seize opportunities presented by the global green transition in the aluminum sector, achieve new breakthroughs in overseas aluminum industry layout, and contribute further to the high-quality development of China's nonferrous metals industry.

The inspection was attended by enterprise representatives including Li Defeng, Vice Chairman and Secretary-General of the Aluminum Branch of the Chinese Nonferrous Metals Industry Association; Mo Xinda, Director of the Light Metals Department; and Jin Haiming, Secretary-General.
