Industrial enterprises with annual revenue of RMB 20 million ($2.9 million) or more have been ordered to reduce their energy consumption by 13.5% by 2025 compared with 2020 levels, according to a joint plan published on Monday by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) along with the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment.
