BEIJING -- China will make unswerving efforts to develop new and renewable energy to protect ecological environment and achieve sustainable development, according to a white paper released Wednesday.
Vigorously developing new and renewable energy is a key strategic measure for promoting the diversified and clean energy development and for fostering new strategic industries, said a white paper on China's energy policy released by the Information Office of the State Council.
