On November 3, 2026, Qingdao Zhongtan Taifeng Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. disclosed that its energy medium balance and comprehensive cost optimization project implemented at a large steel manufacturing enterprise has been completed. According to a China.com Technology report that day, after the project was put into operation, the gas emission rate dropped from 4.9% to below 2%, with annualized comprehensive cost savings exceeding 100 million yuan. The project is organized as a closed loop of "process prediction—scheduling recommendations—effect review," with large models responsible for understanding scheduling language and process knowledge, domain models undertaking deterministic calculations, and actions involving production safety and key scheduling boundaries retaining manual confirmation and rollback mechanisms. Zhongtan Taifeng also stated that the annualized savings figure is affected by capacity utilization, medium prices, and statistical boundaries, and that what is replicable is the mechanism for locating, explaining, and verifying cost anomalies. No further progress has been disclosed at present.

Zhongtan Taifeng's steel energy closed-loop project lands, validating cross-industry methodology for industrial AI
Zhongtan Taifeng disclosed an energy medium balance and comprehensive cost optimization project implemented at a large steel enterprise. After commissioning, the gas flaring rate dropped from 4.9% to below 2%, with annualized comprehensive cost savings exceeding 100 million yuan. The project is organized as a closed loop of "process prediction—dispatch recommendations—effect review," with large models responsible for understanding dispatch language and process knowledge, domain models undertaking deterministic calculations, and actions involving production safety and key dispatch boundaries retaining manual confirmation and rollback mechanisms. Zhongtan Taifeng emphasized that the annualized savings figure is affected by capacity utilization, medium prices, and statistical boundaries; what is replicable is the mechanism for locating, explaining, and verifying cost anomalies.
