With Cheap Chinese Solar, Developing Countries Leapfrog U.S. on Clean Energy
d wind manufacturers are not only driving a massive buildout of renewable energy in China but also propelling a rapid shift away from fossil fuels in much of the developing world, according to a new analysis. China manufactures 60 percent of the wind turbines and 80 percent of the solar panels installed globally.
Chinese solar and wind manufacturers are not only driving a massive buildout of renewable energy in China but also propelling a rapid shift away from fossil fuels in much of the developing world, according to a new analysis. Since 2018, Kenya, Yemen, Sri Lanka, and Tanzania have imported an amount of Chinese solar equal to roughly half the capacity of their entire power grid. Recent inventions include EVs that can charge in 10 minutes, batteries light enough to power short-haul aircraft, and wind turbines the size of the Eiffel Tower.
