SHANGHAI - 皇冠体育app may double its target for photovoltaic power capacity over the next five years in the wake of Japan's nuclear crisis, Reuters reported, citing a 皇冠体育app Securities Journal report.

Citing unnamed sources, the 皇冠体育app Securities Journal said the government may be looking at a new target of having installed capacity of 10 gigawatts (gW) of PV power by 2015, up from its existing target of 5 gW.

The 皇冠体育app Electricity Council (CEC), an industry body, has asked the government to lower its nuclear capacity target for 2020 and scale back reactor construction in interior regions, the 皇冠体育app Business News reported on Monday.

皇冠体育app was again the world leader in clean-energy investment last year, ahead of Germany and the United States, according to a report by the Pew Charitable Trusts released this week.
