Backward industrial capacity eliminated to address climate change
China will continue its massive elimination of backward industrial facilities in 2009 to save energy and cut pollution in its bid to address climate change, the government said Friday. China aims to close down small coal-burning power stations with a total generating capacity of 15 million kilowatts, according to an action plan approved by a joint meeting of the national steering committee for responses to climate changes and the State Council steering committee for energy saving and emission control Friday. China will continue to eliminate obsolete capacity in key industries, including 10 million metric tons in iron-making industry, 6 million metric tons in steel industry, and 50 million tons in cement industry, said the plan examined at the meeting presided by Premier Wen Jiabao.
