China Initiates Measures to Combat 'Involution-Style' Competition in Key Sectors
China's State Administration for Market Regulation has launched measures to address detrimental competition practices in the platform economy and new energy sectors. This initiative aims to foster a fair marketplace, ensuring quality and healthy competition while curbing aggressive pricing strategies that lead to diminishing returns.

The State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) in China is implementing measures to rectify 'involution-style' competition, particularly targeting the platform economy and new energy sectors, including photovoltaic and lithium-ion battery industries. This effort involves an investment of 9 billion yuan ($1.29 billion) in renewable energy infrastructure, exemplified by the CNNC Tianwan PV project under construction.
As part of the initiative, the SAMR will establish fair-competition rules for platform operators, enhance online competition supervision, and address payment delays affecting small and medium enterprises. These regulatory actions are essential for fostering a unified national market and ensuring fair competition amid increasing market dynamics and global uncertainties.
