- This is solar 'capacity' not actually used solar energy, because
- It's being installed in Tibet, far away from the industrial zones of China on the coast, which all run on coal power which
- China is the largest consumer of in the world, making up more than 50% of their energy use by kW, while renewables + nuclear make up less than 30%.
China has no intention of switching to renewable energy infrastructure, they are building more coal fired plants and have instituted quotas to ensure that dirtier and more expensive coal is still their primary source of power.
If you want a green world, you can't wait for a politburo to give it to you.
