Is China on track to reduce its carbon emissions? If so, why is it building so much coal power? In this episode, researcher Lauri Myllyvirta brings data to bear on China’s recent decarbonization efforts and helps demystify the country’s larger intentions.
China produced 200 GW of solar and wind last year, which is all of Europe's production. The solar panels last for 30 years. Why can't we import some of China's high quality solar panels and make an exception to the IRA rules? We do not have enough time to waste on American production. And don't forget, all the US needs is 1,300 GW to power the whole US.
