CHINA'S Science and Technology Minister Wan Gang said in Beijing yesterday that a lot of new and high technology would be applied to the Shanghai 2010 World Expo.
The event highlights the Expo theme "Better City, Better Life" with latest technology.
Clean energy would be used to supply electricity for the six-month Expo beginning on May 1, Wan told a press conference on the sidelines of the annual session of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
The 5.8-square-kilometer Expo site would become the venue for the largest-scale solar energy application project as 4.6-megawatt power generators would be put into operation, said Wan, also vice chairman of the CPPCC National Committee.
A group of 34 3-megawatt wind power generating units are under construction and will supply clean energy for the event.
"The Shanghai Expo will have a zero-emission policy for vehicles in the Expo site with various kinds of electricity-driven cars being used," said Wan.
In the landmark four pavilions at the Expo site, LED lamps accounted for more than 80 percent of the lighting system, Wan said, adding that devices had been installed in the four permanent buildings to recover all rainwater.
The minister, who was born in Shanghai in 1952, said he hoped the high technology to be shown and applied during the Expo could be applied to daily life and help the city boost industrial development and restructuring.
