GREEN ECONOMY

摘要

Attempts to rekindle the Midlands motor industry in a greener shade have been unveiled with a £19M government cash injection. The region has been designated a new Low Carbon Economic Area (LCEA) and is pulling in the funding for R&D of low-carbon vehicles. Visiting the International Manufacturing Centre at the University of Warwick to launch the LCEA, Business Secretary, Lord Mandelson, said: "I want to see the Midlands help the UK to lead the global automotive industry in the transition from conventional to low-carbon vehicle technologies."
