China's top legislature yesterday turned its attention to the creation of specific plans for more renewable energy, such as nuclear, wind and solar power.

The move would not only create more energy that is desperately needed in China, but would also spur industry and business development, environmental experts say.

A draft amendment to the renewable energy law was submitted for first reading to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC), in a bid to remove the power transmission bottleneck that hinders industrial development.
