In 2005, Shougang moved to Beijing, mainly because the air pollution in Shougang was too serious, and the target choice was Caofeidian. Shougang will move on 20 10. Shougang officially started construction in Caofeidian after the relocation. Nowadays, many years have passed, Shougang Jingtang Iron and Steel Plant started from a small sand island with less than 4 square kilometers in Bohai Bay, and now it has achieved its first profit after its establishment, which is a successful example of the functional relief of the capital.
Background of Shougang's relocation:
With the development of economy and society, Beijing wants to build an international metropolis and host the 2008 Olympic Games, which constantly puts forward higher requirements for environmental protection.
Although Shougang is at the leading level of steel enterprises in China in environmental treatment, the natural background value of air pollution in Beijing is very high and the environmental capacity is very limited. The special status of the capital is not suitable for the further development of steel smelting industry. Shougang must move, and a major historical choice and severe test are placed in front of Shougang people.
