Renewable technologies are gathering speed, putting the world within reach of falling greenhouse gas emissions. Climate experts say they "struggle to wrap their heads around" the sheer size, scale and speed of the current transition.
While China is building a LOT of renewable energy and it should be applauded for it, it is not the only thing that are building. China accounted for 95% of the world’s new coal power construction activity in 2023, according to the latest annual report from https://globalenergymonitor.org/
To me, that’s kind of good news, if that means essentially only one place is building new coal plants and it’s the same place that’s building a ton of new solar plants and EV’s, too.

Yeah China’s explosive power needs growth and even the AI rose. It’s driving world power needs through the roof.
