China Calls ‘Overcapacity’ Claims ‘Nonsense’ as Global Green Demand Soars
China’s Ministry of Commerce has slammed recent claims of ‘overcapacity’ in its booming new energy sector as ‘groundless’ and ‘contrary to common sense.’ 🔍 Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, spokesperson He Yadong fired back at critics, arguing the global green energy industry is still in its infancy—and needs more collaboration, not less.
‘Future-Proof’ Growth
‘The demand for green tech like EVs and solar panels is exploding worldwide,’ He said. 🌍⚡ With countries racing to cut carbon emissions, he emphasized that China’s production capacity is actually too low to meet the planet’s climate goals. ‘This isn’t oversupply—it’s smart preparation for a sustainable future.’
Trade Wins for Everyone?
He also highlighted how global trade lets nations play to their strengths: ‘When countries team up based on their expertise, everyone benefits—cheaper tech, faster innovation, and a healthier planet.’ 🤝💡 His comments come as Western leaders debate tariffs on Chinese EVs, sparking fresh tensions.
Bottom line? China’s doubling down on its green tech dominance—and betting the world will need every battery, panel, and turbine it can make. 🔋🌞
