HOHHOT, July 11 (Xinhua) -- Energy conservation, carbon reduction, and low-carbon development have been integrated throughout various stages of coal mining, transportation, and utilization in Jungar Banner, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

The smart mine at Longwanggou Coal Mine of China Datang Corporation Ltd. in Jungar Banner has successfully achieved unmanned operations in 18 fixed underground locations. Intelligent frequency modulation is utilized to optimize coal mining operations, effectively reducing energy consumption by 30 percent. By the end of December 2022, a total of 126 intelligent coal mines, similar to this one, have been established in Inner Mongolia.
