President urges clean energy for heating

PRESIDENT Xi Jinping says the countryís north should promote the use of clean energy for heating in winter with a view to reducing the number of smoggy days.

Natural gas and electricity can be used as substitutes for coal, a major energy source for China, for heating buildings in the north, Xi said at the 14th meeting of the Central Leading Group on Finance and Economic Affairs.

Clean energy should be used as much as possible and supply a larger share of winter heating, Xi said. He said the  government would give enterprises a major role in the process to ensure affordable heating.
