The 15 MW onshore wind turbine’s blades are the least of this news. The following is the big part of this story. Quote: “”The China Electricity Council said in its latest annual report that wind and solar would make up around 40% of the country’s installed power generation capacity by the end of 2024 –

Sam Evans tells us that global solar PV installations will total 360 GW, and 200 GW of that will be in China. And Wright’s Law will cause the solar PV to drop further in cost. The statistics he gives are very interesting. China has 1000 GW of coal power that must be replaced, and they

As I said earlier, China already has 1000 GW of renewables and will soon have 1200 GW, approaching 30% of its total generation. That’s enormous – the whole US has 1300 GW generation total! The Chinese are building wind and solar as fast as they can, and are going to meet their promised goals even

Brian Henry I think you’re implying that China is irresponsible when it comes to ending the burning of fossil fuels. Let me remind you that many if not most of the devices you use in your life were made in China. People here criticise lithium batteries as violating human rights because the cobalt may have

This article doesn’t make sense! First they said that if renewables AGR stays at least 20% we will meet 1.5 degrees C. Then they said that solar and wind just covered the total growth in 2021!!!! We’re going nowhere! Just treading water! We need to get rid of coal! It’s the worst for pollution and

China’s green hydrogen message spells bad news for Russia. Quote: << Green hydrogen made no sense as commercial venture back when the cost of wind and solar power was sky-high. As those costs have come down, the green hydrogen market has exploded, and for good reason. Hydrogen is already part and parcel of the modern

This article outlines the incredibly huge amount of solar panels that China is supplying to be installed, much of them in China. The figures are astounding! Quote: << Thus far, 24 of China’s 31 provinces and regions have set out five-year-plan renewables targets which include plans for 375-420GW of solar by 2025 – around 75-84GW

Wow! 2600 GW total by year’s end! That’s *twice* as much as the whole US uses! But it’s really amazing that half of that will be renewables, which is a very commendable achievement since China’s renewables have grown a huge amount very quickly. The only sad part is that so much of the total is

OMG! China is expected to install 1200 GW of solar and wind by 2026! To give you an idea of how huge an amount that is, the total electric generation for the United States is about 1200 GW! That is an enormous amount! Quote from article: << China is expected to install 1,200 GW of
