GUANGZHOU: South China's Guangdong Province, one of the country's biggest energy consumers, is seeking help from foreign governments and organizations to curb its appetite for resources, an official said yesterday.

Xie Shichao, director of the Guangdong provincial economic and trade commission's department of environment and resource conservation, told a press conference yesterday that representatives of the governments of the US, UK and Switzerland and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, as well as the Asian Development Bank and some private companies were interested in cooperating with Guangdong to develop energy-saving projects.

Guangdong signed an agreement with the Swiss engineering firm ABB to help local companies become more efficient. ABB will also help analyze and audit local companies' energy-use.
