Abstract: Departing from the perspective that it is the inherent need of large energy enterprises to develop modern coal chemical industry，it is asserted that modern coal chemical industry could become a new economic growth point for energy enterprises. The development of modern coal chemical industry is in compliance with the national energy strategy and conducive to the alleviation of environmental pressures on enterprises，to the improvement of energy conversion effectiveness and to the decrease of CO2 emission reduction cost. Meanwhile，the following issues must be seriously addressed when entering into the modern coal chemical industry，that is，chemical production experience，national industrial policies，project investment risks，excess production capacity，etc.，and corresponding suggestions are also proposed. For instance，capable domestic large energy enterprises should seize this unique opportunity of development but must study seriously and plan prudently during the process of implementation. It is recommended to strengthen the building and training of coal chemical talent pool，to increase the study of green house gas emission reduction，to identify clearly the investment risks and act accordingly on the basis of capability. And last but not least，the project decision-making must be based upon the evaluation of product slate and market segmentation.
