    Enel, one of Italy's biggest energy producers with an international reach, signed the memo of understanding with China Huaneng Group and the State-owned China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) following a business forum in Beijing.
    Renzi is on an Asian trade mission that began in Vietnam and includes Kazakhstan.
    Francesco Starace, chief executive officer of Rome-based Enel, signed the MOU that the company says will build on joint work that began in 2009 in the field of carbon capture and storage.
    A second MOU signed by Starace with the CNNC involves information-sharing and cooperation on development, construction, operation and maintenance of nuclear power plants.
