China Coal International has dozens of Grade A qualifications such as general contracting, engineering design, survey and supervision. Has the most abundant technical force and human resources in the field of coal engineering technology in China; It is the engineering company with the largest scale, the strongest technology and the highest market share in China coal engineering industry. Adhere to the market demand-oriented, relying on technological innovation, focusing on the whole-process service of the project, accelerate the development direction to an international engineering company integrating science, industry and trade, establish and improve the technical service system that runs through the whole-process service of the project, and form four major products: consulting, survey and design, project general contracting and production service, and the business sector layout of ten majors such as mines, open pit, coal preparation, environmental protection, power plants and coal water slurry. Its main business occupies more than 60% of the domestic market, and it is in a leading position in the technical application fields such as mining, open pit mining, coal washing, coal water slurry, clean energy and environmental engineering, and some technologies have reached the international advanced level. It is the main force to improve the technical level of China's coal engineering and the modernization level of large and medium-sized mines, and has a strong influence in the international market. Founded in 1957, it is a scientific research institution directly under the former Ministry of Coal Industry and the only comprehensive scientific research institute in the coal industry. On 1999, it was transformed into a science and technology enterprise directly under the central government.
The General Institute of Coal Science adheres to the development path of integration of technology, industry and trade, and has a large number of key laboratories of coal industry, national and industrial quality inspection centers, research centers, post-doctoral research mobile stations, and doctoral and master's degree authorization points; It has a large number of high-end professional and technical personnel, including academicians of China Academy of Engineering, and has strong scientific research and development strength. Adhere to deepening reform as the driving force, scientific and technological innovation as the core, and independent development as the direction, strengthen and expand the main business, moderately develop related supporting industries, develop and form three major industrial sectors: coal machine equipment manufacturing, safety technical equipment and engineering technical services, and actively develop the coal chemical industry sector. Undertaking more than 70% of the national key scientific and technological projects in the coal industry, achieving more than 5,000 scientific research achievements, winning more than 500 national and provincial-level scientific and technological progress awards, invention awards 1000 and patents; Advocated and promoted all previous technological changes in China's coal industry, constantly led and supported the scientific and technological progress of China's coal industry, and made outstanding contributions to the development of China's coal industry.
In June 2008, in order to meet the needs of cultivating large companies and enterprise groups with independent intellectual property rights and well-known brands and strong international competitiveness, and to build a complete industrial chain, with the approval of the State Council, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council decided to strategically reorganize two "national team" enterprises of coal engineering and coal technology, and merged to form China Coal Science and Technology Group Co., Ltd.
