Abstract |
November 2003, the State Council Development Research Center (DRC) presented an initial draft of the National Energy Plan to senior leaders at the November 15-17, 2003 China Development Forum. These senior leaders, including Vice Premier Zeng Peiyan and National People’s Congress (NPC) General Secretary Sheng Huaren, endorsed the plan, which calls for making energy efficiency the number one priority in China’s energy strategy. An early draft of the main report along with eleven background reports and written comments by international energy experts Thomas B. Johansson and Peter A. Bradford are available for download. DRC is currently revising the National Energy Plan for adoption by the State Council. |
