Taiyuan Iron and Steel Group (Taihang Steel) successfully delivered the first batch of thousand-ton-level 28mm ultra-thick low-alloy high-strength steel hot-rolled coils in China. The product will be used in the manufacturing of steel pipes for the Xianyang section of the "South-to-North Water Diversion Project," providing crucial material support for this major water conservancy project.

Looks like they got this for the water pipes.

During the first phase of mass production, a facility in Shanxi province will produce 200 tons of T1000 carbon fiber annually.
I don't know why they keep reporting this as big news since others have already started T1100 production and are in stable operation like with CSST.

自2015年起,公司便自主投入研发高强度、高模量的碳纤维材料;2019年国内启动相关材料应用验证;2022年,ZT9H产品性能达到使用要求;2023年,ZT9H实现稳定批产供应。”李辉透露,这一过程中,公司不遗余力倾注资源,全力保障技术研发与产业转化。如今,中简科技的主力产品已形成显著技术优势——ZT9H成为继ZT7H之后,持续引领国内高性能碳纤维技术创新的高端产品,首次与世界先进水平并驾齐驱,并在部分指标及应用方面形成了超越,且实现全产业链自主化。
Here is sinofibre talking about it having ZT9H (T1000/T1100) class in stable production and supply since 2023.

自成立以来,恒神股份始终以“打造中国好材料”为使命,先后完成了T800、T1000、T1100级高强度碳纤维及M40X级等高强高模碳纤维的研制攻关,其中“航天用干喷湿纺12K高强中模碳纤维”获评工信部制造业单项冠军企业,“某运输机用低成本高性能碳/环氧复合材料关键技术”项目获陕西省科学技术进步一等奖,“T800级干喷湿纺碳纤维项目”获江苏省科学技术奖二等奖,T1100级碳纤维、HM50E(M40X级)碳纤维入选江苏省首批次新材料名单。超高强度T1200级碳纤维小试已实现拉伸强度8.0 GPa的核心性能指标突破。
恒神股份/Hengshen's T1200 ultra high strength carbon Fiber has passed Jiangsu's frontier tech development plan. Low rate production of its T1200 grade CF is show 8.0 Gpa tensile strength.

So why exactly are we still talking about 200t of T1000 that just started production?
