About the show

World Coal Industry Expo is a global coal-industry exhibition held in Shanghai. It brings together the equipment, technology and services used to mine, move, process and clean coal, and serves as a meeting point for coal-producing countries and the companies that supply them.

The expo is laid out in eight zones, from international cooperation and coal cities through mining, transport, digital coal and clean utilisation to support services. Coal producers and city delegations exhibit alongside mining-equipment makers, logistics, port and containerisation operators, research institutes, surveyors and investors, with national delegations invited from major coal-producing countries including the United States, Russia, India, Indonesia, Australia, Kazakhstan and Mongolia.
