Chinas Commitment to Clean Energy - China is facing energy
safety and pollution challenges resulting from its heavy dependence
on fossil fuels. To achieve its environmental goals, China has listed
wind energy and solar energy among the top seven priority industries in
its 12th ve year plan. China is targeting 200 GW of installed wind power
capacity by 2020 and 35GW in solar installation by 2015. Approximately
21% of the Companys revenue in the rst nine months of 2013 was
from sales to customers in the wind power industry. The Company has
yet to generate meaninful revenue from customers in the solar industry.
