In a statement Greenpeace director, Steve Sawyer, said, “China is on the verge of a major breakthrough. If it acts now, it could be the major player in the global energy revolution.”

“Chinese officials speaking at a meeting in Beijing Saturday seemed to agree on the potential of wind energy, which could also help create 382,000 Chinese jobs over the next two decades,” added Sawyer.

One of the officials in question, the head of China’s National Development and Reform Commission, Xu Dingming, said, “I have a golden dream. Wind energy is clean, unselfish and powerful. I hope my dream comes true.”

China, due to its ever increasing hunger for energy is looking to various alternatives in order to supply the demand.
