At the top of the organisational chart of China Energy Investment Corporation is the controlling state-ownership layer represented by the state shareholder commission, which establishes strategic oversight, major policy direction and governance for the group. Reporting into that ownership layer is the Board of Directors and the Group Executive Management, which translate the ownership mandates into corporate strategy, allocate capital across business lines and oversee the major operational portfolios. On the third level the Group is organised into its major business segments such as coal mining and processing, power generation (including thermal, hydro, wind and other renewables), integrated transportation and logistics (rail, port, shipping) and chemical product manufacturing, each acting as a strategic business unit of the Group. At the fourth level each business segment comprises subsidiary companies, regional operating units and functional departments—for example individual mines, generation plants, regional grid or logistics operations, subsidiary chemical divisions—each led by a general manager or equivalent and responsible for day-to-day operational performance, safety, environmental compliance and reporting up to the business segment head.
