On December 4, 2025, the National Energy Administration (NEA) issued the Measures for the Management of Public Credit Information in the Energy Industry (the “Measures”). The Measures aims to further strengthen the administration of public credit information in the energy industry and promote the collection, sharing, and application of such credit information.
The Measures establishes a framework for managing public credit information in China’s energy industry, covering collection, disclosure, application, credit repair, objection handling, and supervision. It aligns the sectoral regime with the Energy Law of the People’s Republic of China and national social credit policies and adopts a catalog-based scope consistent with the National Basic Catalog of Public Credit Information (2025). The Measures also embeds credit use into the full cycle of administrative management, specifies incentives and disciplinary measures, promotes credit commitments with tracking, and imposes information security and rights-protection safeguards.
In summary, the Measures consolidates the legal basis and operational rules for energy-sector credit governance, raises the quality and efficiency of credit information management, and enables differentiated supervision anchored in credit evaluation. By standardizing disclosure, repair, and objection procedures while strengthening data security and rights protection, the Measures supports fair competition, risk monitoring, and the energy sector’s green, low-carbon, high-quality development.
