Industrial layout

 

  After decades of restructuring, Shanghai’s industry has preliminarily achieved the layout with key industrial bases as its dragonhead, above municipality-level industrial parks as its backing, key district/county-level industrial park as its supporting force and downtown industrial parks as its supplementation.

   --Industries are increasingly concentrating toward industrial parks. Concentration level in above municipality-level industrial parks has reached about 38%, while output per square kilometer increased by RMB 500 million. Together, the 13 industrial parks of national or municipal level of the city realized a gross output of RMB 469.56 billion in the year, increasing by 45%, accounting for 41.7% of that of the overall industry of the city, which was 4.9 percentages higher than the weight of the previous year.

   --Substantial progress has been achieved in the development of key industrial bases. By this time, Shanghai microelectronics industrial base has become one of the key development and manufacturing bases of microelectronics in the world. All together, there are ten 8’’chip production lines, either under construction or already in operation, turning out an IC output weighing 51% in the national total. Shanghai Chemical Industrial Park has basically completed infrastructure construction and is now at the stage of full construction of main body projects, which, about 10, were scheduled to get an investment of about USD 8 billion. Shanghai Refined Steel Base is planned to focus on he development of special steel, stainless steel and carbon steel, with the aim at a world-class steel manufacturing base. Shanghai International Auto City is striving toward a composite auto industrial base with auto industrial chain as its core, integrated with auto manufacturing/R&D, dealership and exhibition, education, sports culture, tourism and a number of other functions. In addition, construction projects of Lingang Equipment Industrial Base and Changxing Island Ship Building Base have been officially initialized.

  --A new round of restructuring of downtown industrial layout is underway. According to the general layout of the municipality and requirement of the World Expo, detailed planning was made on the realignment scenarios of old industrial areas along the Huangpu River, Suzhou River, Middle Ring Road, and in Taopu, Wujing Districts.
