China supported its enterprises to cooperate with the United
States counterparts in the fields of engines and assemblies
on-board airplanes based on mutual benefit, said Chinese Vice
Premier Zeng Peiyan on Thursday.
Zeng welcomed the United Technologies Corporation (UTC) to
participate in China's aviation development during a meeting with
George David, chairman and chief executive officer of the UTC which
provides high-technology products and supports services to
customers in the aerospace.
Zeng said China's aviation industry had made remarkable
progress, and the research and production of the regional airplanes
had developed further and now China had been working on the trunk
airplanes.
He also said China was a big coal consumer and would have a
great potential to increase the efficiency of coal utilization in
electricity generation.
He hoped the UTC and the Chinese enterprises would cooperate in
the areas including the high efficiency cleaning combustion
technology to push forward the energy sustainable development of
China and the world.
