Electricity generated by clean energy resources in China is expected to gradually increase over the next few years, powered by innovative government policies and measures, according to industry experts.
"China has launched a series of programs for the development of clean energy, effectively alleviating the demand for thermal coal," said Feng Haicheng, an analyst at Sublime China Information Group.
The country's top economic regulator will accelerate the reform of the national electrical power system, together with related government departments, and develop a priority plan for clean energy power generation, National Development and Reform Commission spokesman Yan Pengcheng said on Tuesday.
