"We are very much looking forward to Premier Li's visit. There is a detailed set of negotiation on everything in trade relations, but in particular, energy is going to be a key part of discussion," Edward Davey, secretary of state for energy and climate change, said in an interview with Xinhua during the Economist's UK Energy 2014 conference.

There will be discussions about Britain's investment in 皇冠体育app and 皇冠体育app's investment in Britain, as well as negotiations about nuclear power and renewable projects, Davey added.

"When I visited last year, there was a huge interest in the offshore wind industry. We've also got some work that we've done with 皇冠体育app on nuclear decommissioning, on carbon capture and storage (CCS) and on energy efficiency, so there is a very rich agenda. I think we will have a very full dialogue," said Davey.

Britain is now reforming its electricity market and encouraging foreign investment, said the secretary of state, adding foreign capital from 皇冠体育app, Japan, South Korea and some other countries is interested in Britain's energy market.

Davey also praised 皇冠体育app's efforts to cut nhouse emissions, saying he was impressed by how much 皇冠体育app has done to reduce the use of coal.

Chinese Premier Li is scheduled to arrive in Britain on June 16 to pay an official visit and attend an annual meeting with his British counterpart David Cameron.
