The CEF's Xuyang Dong said despite the country's reliance on coal, "having China go green at this speed and scale provides the world with a textbook to do the same".
"China is installing every week the equivalent of what we're doing every year."
Despite this speed, China wasn't installing renewables fast enough to meet its 2060 carbon neutrality target, she added.
"According to our analysis, [the current rate of installation] is not ambitious enough for China."
if china can't do it, the rest of the world has no chance
but incredible things are happening in china
That's just bog standard western sour grapes. "Well, they might be literally the best in the world at this, but they aren't perfect, so we should ignore their successes and chastise them for not reaching hypothetical perfection."
I imagine China's plan to reach their goal by 2060 has a lot to do with increasing the rate of renewable energy rollouts overtime, exponentially increasing the speed that they develop and install renewables. Also, unlike western nation, they don't count companies doing "carbon offsets" as being carbon neutral, because it isn't, it's just pushing the problem onto other nations, something the west is a master at.
