China has chance to build renewable energy future

China, with its massive size and thus extraordinary potential for economies of scale, is undoubtedly set to play a leading role in the advancement of green energy. The Chinese government has recognized the urgent need for change, in terms of both reducing pollution caused by greenhouse gases and enhancing energy security by attempting to diversify away from imported fossil fuels. That is why China, along with the US, has committed to implementing the COP21 agreement achieved in Paris as quickly as possible, perhaps even by the end of this year.

Here in Europe, however, there seems to be a good deal of scepticism about what China is up to. At a recent EU-China energy conference at the European Economic and Social Committee in Brussels, for instance, one speaker was at pains to point out his view that China is dumping cheap solar panels on Europe and that if this practice is not stopped then European producers will go out of business. This suspicion illustrated the prevailing European distrust of China's intentions, as well as the need for improved channels of communication.

On the other hand, the speaker didn't appear to recognise the fact that cheap solar panels might be exactly what the world needs if it seriously wants to combat climate change.

Instead of finding ways to accept China's contribution, many Europeans seem to be intent on finding fault and protecting European interests instead of emphasizing cooperation on achieving the goals set in Paris.

However, despite the parlous state of the global environment there seem to be numerous reasons for optimism, particularly now that China has taken up the challenge of shifting away from the dirty trio as rapidly as economic development permits. China is now the world's leading producer of renewables, mainly through hydroelectric and wind power production. China is seeking to move away from its over-reliance on coal - in the short-term, by switching more of its energy production to natural gas imported via pipelines from Central Asia, but in the medium- and long-term by focusing on green energy.

One exciting development is the advent of large-scale solar thermal projects in Australia and the US. Despite the type of teething troubles common with any new technology, this alternative to the standard photovoltaic method of harnessing the sun's energy is gaining traction, as well as the interest of the world's biggest coal producer, the Chinese company Shenhua Coal. Shenhua has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Australian company SolarReserve to construct 10 large-scale solar thermal plants in China at an estimated cost of $2 billion.

.....I think this article helps w/understanding the way(s) China focuses on and attacks a perceived problem.

Then too, you have things like:

......It seems to me that China has been making $$$$ while learning, (flooding the mkt and bringing down prices) and expanding knowledge w/an outlook
toward better product and world dominance.


.......Just think, some still wonder about the reason(s) of why QMA in Hong Kong
I wonder what Steve and Art saw firsthand. I noticed Art changed his profile picture.
