China’s energy system is shifting at remarkable speed. For the first time, clean power sources met more than 80% of new electricity demand last year, a sharp break from the past decade. Solar and wind now outpace coal, and fossil-fueled power generation has already started to dip. With massive growth in solar, wind, batteries, and nuclear, China is electrifying its economy at a scale no other country matches—recasting itself as an “electrostate” while the U.S. stalls under fossil-fuel nostalgia. Dan McCarthy with Canary Media has the full story including a data visualization that puts the adoption rate fully in proportion.
