GUANGZHOU, Jun 25, 2008 (SinoCast via COMTEX) -- ETN | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Eaton Corporation (NYSE: ETN), a US-based diversified industrial manufacturer in aerospace, automotive, electrical and hydraulic fields, will promote green energy in the automotive market in China.

The Fortune-500 company adopted its hybrid power system in 30 city buses of Sunshine Bus Co., Ltd. in Guangzhou, capital of South China's Guangdong Province in January 2008 as a trial.
