en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 30, eight Chinese departments, including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, issued the "Implementation Opinions on Promoting the High-Quality Development of the Industrial Internet," proposing that by 2030, the industrial internet will achieve broader, deeper, and higher-level development, with new infrastructure deployed on a large scale, the construction of 50,000 industrial 5G private networks, and a new leap forward in the deep integration of the real economy and the digital economy.
This set of goals moves industrial internet construction from single-point pilots to a phase of large-scale deployment. The 50,000 industrial 5G private networks will serve scenarios such as factories, industrial parks, mines, ports, power grids, steel, chemicals, automotive, and electronic information manufacturing, providing a network foundation for equipment connectivity, production line coordination, machine vision, remote control, unmanned inspection, AGV scheduling, and safety monitoring. Unlike public networks, industrial 5G private networks emphasize low latency, high reliability, data isolation, on-site coverage, and production system adaptation. The explicit inclusion of this construction target in the 2030 goals indicates that industrial enterprise network transformation will enter a broader phase of concentrated advancement.
The document also proposes expanding the scope of enterprises served by identification resolution, creating approximately five comprehensive platforms with international influence, and initially establishing a relatively complete industrial data foundational system.
The industrial internet is not just a communication network. 5G private networks address on-site production connectivity, identification resolution solves the unique identification of equipment, products, materials, parts, and orders within the industrial chain, comprehensive platforms handle data aggregation, model deployment, application development, and cross-enterprise collaboration, and industrial data systems relate to data rights confirmation, circulation, use, security, and value transformation. By placing these goals in the same implementation opinion, the eight departments indicate that industrial internet construction is moving from "connecting equipment and onboarding platforms" to a phase of "network, identification, platform, data, and security" linkage. For manufacturing enterprises, future digital transformation will place greater emphasis on collectible production line data, identifiable equipment status, traceable production processes, deployable industrial models, and computable supply chain coordination.
Application coverage targets have also been clearly quantified. The document proposes achieving full coverage of 207 industrial mid-level categories through integrated applications, cultivating a batch of graded and classified 5G factories with distinct characteristics, and achieving an 80% penetration rate of safety classification and grading for key industries' above-scale enterprises.
Full coverage of 207 industrial mid-level categories means the industrial internet will no longer be concentrated only in a few leading industries or demonstration factories. Fields such as raw materials, equipment manufacturing, consumer goods, electronic information, energy, mining, shipbuilding, rail transit, engineering machinery, and food processing all need to develop application solutions tailored to their own process flows and production organization methods. 5G factories will also evolve from "benchmark demonstrations" to graded and classified development, with different forms emerging across industries: discrete manufacturing will focus more on flexible scheduling, quality inspection, and logistics coordination; process industries will emphasize continuous production monitoring, energy optimization, and safety control; and scenarios like mines, ports, and power grids will prioritize remote operations, unmanned equipment, and highly reliable communication.
The document proposes that by 2030, the supply of industrial internet technologies, standards, and products will be continuously improved, enterprise capabilities and cross-border collaboration levels will be enhanced, and the added value of core industries will exceed 2.5 trillion yuan, becoming an important component of new quality productive forces.
The target of 2.5 trillion yuan in core industry added value directly points to the industrial scale of the industrial internet itself. This industrial chain includes industrial communication equipment, industrial gateways, industrial software, edge computing, identification resolution systems, industrial internet platforms, data collection equipment, network security products, industrial apps, system integration services, and industry solutions. As 5G private networks, industrial data platforms, and industrial AI applications expand simultaneously, related hardware, software, and service enterprises will gain new project demands. The policy also proposes building a globally leading industrial internet infrastructure system and an internationally advanced technology and industrial system by 2035, achieving broad and deep coverage of integrated applications in key areas of the national economy, and forming comprehensive support capabilities for new industrialization. The 2030 goals are more like a large-scale construction milestone, while the 2035 goals point to the overall maturity of infrastructure, industrial capabilities, and industry applications.
