China Invests in US Wind Farms


A subsidiary of the former AVIC conglomerate will invest $300 million into Tang Energy, a Dallas based firm with Chinese operations, for wind farms in several states including Texas.
As the agreement was signed today Secretary of State Hillary Clinton opened a two day conference in Washington remarking that climate change is a "central focus" of the Obama administration's foreign policy. Meanwhile at a conference in Beijing it was revealed that China's new goals for wind energy - currently at 12 Gigawatt (GW) capacity - is for 100 GW wind power capacity by 2020.
