UK Energy and Climate Secretary Chris Huhne brought high-level British representatives to China from Nov. 8 to 10, in order to strengthen UK and China energy collaboration and engagement in a cost-effective way. He gave an exclusive interview to China.org.cn.

Both China and the UK have already developed productive cooperation in the energy field through business, industry, academics and government. The new dialogue is recognition that there’s potential to enhance the relationship.

"Working together on oil, gas and low-carbon technologies can help us achieve our common goals: security of energy supply and a stable climate system, and this dialogue will help us to strengthen collaboration between our countries," Huhne said.

He went on to stress that cooperation on energy can bring real economic opportunities. "Not just in low-carbon energy, but also in the investment and production of fossil fuels that we need over the next decades," Huhne said. "By working together we stand to benefit from bringing forward new energy technologies. In a very real sense, we can be partners for growth."
