XI'AN, China, April 9, 2014 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- China Recycling Energy Corp. (NASDAQ: CREG; "CREG" or "the Company"), a leading industrial waste-to-energy solution provider in China, today announced that it expects to benefit from recent policy announcements made by the Chinese government. Mr. Li Keqiang, China's Premier and Party Secretary of the State Council, chaired an executive meeting of the State Council in February to discuss environmental protection, and in particular air pollution. Environmental protection and energy conservation have become the focus of regional and local governments as they begin to make large investments in environmental protection infrastructure.
The global energy saving and environment protection industry has outpaced global economic growth in recent years with an annual growth rate of over 8%, increasing from US$250 billion in 1992 to US$600 billion last year.
The Company has developed energy-efficiency solutions aimed at reducing China's air pollution and energy shortage problems. CREG focuses on recovering and utilizing waste energy in the form of heat, pressure, and gas produced during the industrial production process. The recovered energy is used to generate electricity at low-cost that is sold back to the companies allowing them to reduce overall energy and operating costs as well as emissions to contribute to a cleaner environment.
Mr. Ku Guohua, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CREG, commented, "the energy saving and environment protection industry has now officially been designated a leading strategic industry. This is a major development that will greatly increase business opportunities for us. We will spare no effort in the development of new technologies to meet the increased demand for cost effective industrial energy recycling solutions. We will improve our service quality and increase the number of customers as we work to grow shareholder value and contribute to China's drive for a cleaner environment."
