Capsulizing the new mood, the website of the Global Times newspaper on Wednesday displayed a photo of workers at a powersupplycompany in eastern Anhui province writing "cut down waste" slogans on balloons.
In Albacete, to the north, the powercompany cut the supply to municipal-owned buildings last week, fed up that the local government was simply ignoring its million-euro debt.
Its batteries are already used in power tools, and the company has formed alliances to supply Chrysler and SAIC Motor Corporation of Shanghai with car-sized versions.
The outcome of this forum should be followed closely by every company that is not manufacturing its products with its own renewable powersupply and distributing them by means of transport other than the internal combustion engine.
