China receives Finnish aid to develop biofuels

Effort is part of the "Beautiful Beijing" project.

The project was jointly launched by China’s Ministry of Environment Protection and the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation.

Under the project, Chinese and Finnish clean technology companies will carry out research and pilot programs in five major sectors: energy production, building construction, traffic, energy efficiency in major industries and the monitoring of air quality.

The biofuel or biological fuel technology will focus on China's rural areas. Li Junfeng, director-general of the National Center for Climate Change Strategy and International Cooperation, hopes China and Finland can make a joint effort to popularize biological fuel in rural areas.

Finnish Prime Minister Jyrki Katainen said his country is willing to share Finland's experience on how to protect the environment and promote sustainable development.

Finland has advanced technologies in biological fuel and combined heat and power technologies.
