China continues in its efforts to encourage a green and healthier environment through the promotion of the use of clean-energy vehicles.
With clean-energy vehicles receiving the full backing of the Chinese government, it is predicted that the relevant industries associated with these vehicles will prosper and benefit greatly. These industries will range from power companies, to recharging equipment manufacturers.
Shenzhen, the sub provincial city of southern China’s Guangdong province was the first city to promote the use of electric powered vehicles. The city intends on investment over 300 million RMB over the course of five years. In addition to this, 250 recharging stations, and 12,500 parking lot recharging towers are also planned.
China appears to advancing forward in its implementation of a greener China. In one of our previous postings, (dated January 28 2010 which can be located at the following location: http://blawg.lehmanlaw.com/english/archives/2010/01/28/768.html), we highlighted another green success for China, with the successful reduction of sulphur dioxide emission for the four consecutive year running.
