・US-China Clean Energy Research Center Announced

"U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu, Chinese Minister of Science Wan Gang, and Administrator of National Energy Administration Zhang Guo Bao today announced plans to develop a U.S.-China Clean Energy Research Center. The Center would facilitate joint research and development on clean energy by teams of scientists and engineers from the U.S. and China, as well as serve as a clearinghouse to help researchers in each country. Priority topics to be addressed will initially include building energy efficiency, clean coal including carbon capture and storage, and clean vehicles. The U.S. and China together pledged $15 million to support initial activities.

“The U.S. and China are two great nations, and clean energy is one of the great opportunities of our time,” said U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu. “Working together, we can accomplish more than acting alone.”

The Center will have one headquarters in each country, at locations to be determined. U.S. and Chinese officials will discuss elements of the Center in the months ahead, with the objective of launching initial operations by year end.

Science and technology have long been a cornerstone of U.S.-China cooperation. The first agreement signed between the two nations after normalization of relations in the late 1970s was on science and technology. Today, opportunities abound for U.S.-China cooperation on clean energy technologies. In particular, working together can help to more rapidly drive down the cost of the critical clean energy and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies needed to avoid the worst consequences of climate change.
