In 2000, China implemented an "Ecological Home and Rich Farmer Programme", which promotes efficient energy generation and use. It sets biogas, biomass and solar energy as priorities.

The EU stands ready to contribute its know-how to developing innovative policies, instruments and public-private partnerships for accelerating renewable energy markets worldwide, he told reporters.

The EU and China have agreed to build a zero-emission power plant in China as a co-operative project to reduce the impact of power generation on the environment.

Dimas is expected to sign implementation agreements for the EU-China biodiversity Program, including a 30 million-euro (US$36 million) contribution from the European Commission, today with China's environmental protection minister.
