Today, Shandong released the "List of the First Batch of Policies for Promoting Economic Stability, Progress, Quality, and Efficiency in 2026." It includes six special measures aimed at "fully stabilizing project investment," which focus on key areas such as fostering new quality productive forces, major infrastructure construction, and ensuring public well-being. By strengthening support for major projects, optimizing resource guarantees, and enhancing incentive mechanisms, the province aims to sustain positive investment momentum.
In its support for major projects, Shandong will focus on key areas such as fostering new quality productive forces, major infrastructure construction, and public well-being, and plans to launch 2,000 key provincial projects.
Regarding its strategy for emerging fields, Shandong will accelerate the development of the low-altitude economy. The province plans to systematically launch major projects focused on three key areas: infrastructure, equipment manufacturing, and application scenarios. It will also actively seek policy-based financial support, such as central budget investments, ultra-long-term special treasury bonds, local government special bonds, and other new policy-driven financial tools.
In the areas of green energy and industrial upgrading, existing biogas power generation plants are encouraged to upgrade their equipment to enhance safety and reliability.
To stimulate corporate investment vitality, the province will classify investment projects in strategic emerging industries as encouraged projects, if they are undertaken by provincially-owned enterprises and align with their core business operations.
In terms of resource guarantees and institutional innovation, the government will continue to optimize land supply methods. The provision of "standard plots" will be expanded from industrial land to land for other industries, such as logistics. Support will be given to various land supply models, including long-term leasing, rent-to-own arrangements, and flexible-term grants.
To reduce the burden on enterprises, a policy will be implemented to exempt micro and small-sized enterprises from total pollutant emission limits.
