Recently the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress passed "The Renewable Energy Law of the People's Republic of China". The legislation aims to "promote the development and utilization of renewable energy, improve the energy structure, diversify energy supplies, safeguard energy security, protect the environment and realize the sustainable development of the economy and society." This legislation states that fuel retail businesses must begin to include "biological liquid fuel" in their enterprises or they will suffer imposed fines as China is seeking to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels in its diesel transportation vehicles.
