17 October 2005 - The Chinese province of Guangdong has the potential to help make China the world leader in wind power, according to a new report from Greenpeace.
The Wind Guangdong report found that by 2020 the southern Chinese province could realistically be harnessing enough wind power to meet the equivalent of Hong Kong's total current electricity supply. According to the report, this could feasibly cut carbon dioxide emissions by 29 million tonnes.
Chinese scientists have claimed that the richest and most populous region in China is responsible for some of the highest concentrations of carbon dioxide emissions in the world.
Li Junfeng, director of the Chinese Renewable Energy Industry Association, said: "Every player in China is actively devoted to wind energy, including the big five power companies, some private companies and some provincial energy investment companies."
Junfeng highlighted that even companies such as China Guangdong Nuclear Power were interested in wind power.
