The plan, issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the State Administration for Market Regulation, targets an average annual growth rate of about 7% in industrial output from large-scale manufacturers of computers, communications equipment, and other electronic devices.
By 2026, China expects the sector to remain the largest among 41 major industrial categories in both revenue and export share.
When factoring in lithium batteries, photovoltaic products, and components, overall annual revenue in the electronic information manufacturing industry is expected to grow by more than 5 percent during the period.
Authorities also forecast that five provinces will each see their electronic information manufacturing revenues exceed 1 trillion yuan ($138 billion), while the country’s server industry is projected to surpass 400 billion yuan.
