EDF plans more green investments

French power company EDF said it is looking into China's hydro, nuclear and wind power sectors for investment opportunities, in line with the rapid growth of these industries in the country.

The company is also looking at opportunities in clean technologies in the power industry like carbon capture and storage (CCS), Herve Machenaud, president of EDF Asia Pacific Branch, told China Daily in an exclusive interview.

EDF will form a joint venture with China Guangdong Nuclear Power Group to operate the Taishan nuclear power project in southern Guangdong province, said Machenaud, who is also executive vice-president of EDF.
