Sichuan Development and Reform Commission issued measures to support green, low‑carbon development, including interest subsidies for equipment-upgrade loans. Qualifying equipment-upgrade loans will receive an additional interest subsidy funded by ultra-long special sovereign bond proceeds on top of the central government's 1.5 percentage-point fiscal subsidy. For eligible technical-transformation and equipment-upgrade loans, Sichuan will provide a provincial subsidy at an annual rate of 1.5% for up to one year; multiple loans by a single enterprise may be consolidated for application and the provincial Subsidy is capped at 5 mln yuan per firm per year. Banks are urged to proactively obtain subsidy funds and disburse them promptly to lower firms' financing costs.
