"The Plan states that by 2010, China will aim to raise the share of renewable energy in total primary energy consumption to 10 per cent and 15 per cent by 2020 (NDRC, 2007). The plan nominates biomass energy as a priority sector and sets targets of 2 million tonnes for national annual use of non-grain fuel ethanol and 200 000 tonnes for biodiesel by 2010. By 2020, under the plan, China will be using 10 million tonnes of fuel ethanol and 2 million tonnes of biodiesel per year." (http://www.iisd.org/gsi/sites/default/files/china_biofuels_subsidies.pdf)
