Support for green energy to continue

China will continue to implement policies and measures to support clean energy development and promote harmony between people and nature, the nation's leaders said on Wednesday.

They also urged other countries to improve global mechanisms to address climate change; strengthen innovation and cooperation in clean energy, support social and business participation in green industries; and share technologies and experiences with developing countries.

China attaches great importance to developing clean energy because it plays a crucial role in reforming energy structure, maintaining energy security and building an ecological civilization, President Xi Jinping said in a letter to the opening ceremony of the eighth Clean Energy Ministerial and second Mission Innovation Ministerial energy-related forums being held in Beijing.
