Olympic projects use green technologies
By Zhao Tingting (chinadaily.com.cn)
Updated: 2008-07-29 15:33 More than 190 environmentally friendly technologies were adopted to construct Olympic projects, said Yang Weiguang, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission in Beijing on Monday. Yang said yesterday at a press conference that 77 environmental and ecological protection technologies, including noise control, landscaping, environmental protection facilities and solid waste disposal, were incorporated into the Olympic construction. In addition, 11 water utilization and reclaimed water treatment technologies; 46 green construction material application technologies; and 57 environmental protection product application technologies, are used for the Olympic construction. In the face of rising oil prices worldwide, applying clean and renewable energy to Olympic projects is economical, environmentally friendly and safe, said Yang. "The development of clean energy, especially for the application of renewable energy technologies, will strongly guarantee a country's energy security," he said. "The utilization of clean energy in Beijing has expanded from individual development to large-scaled application."The government will beef up the development of environmental protection, energy-saving and clean energy industries after the Olympic Games, as well as boost the exploitation and application of new energies. The government can do more things to promote the application of these new technologies in common households, including providing subsidies for promotion and weeding out outdated technologies through policy controls when the new ones become more developed, Yang said.
