Former U.S. President Donald Trump's recent skepticism about China's wind energy adoption has collided with hard data. Despite his January 2026 remarks at Davos questioning China's domestic wind infrastructure, the numbers tell a different story 📈.
China currently operates the world's largest wind power capacity – over 600 million kilowatts as of November 2025, maintaining its global lead for 15 consecutive years. From the Gobi Desert to coastal waters, CGTN footage shows turbines taller than skyscrapers powering communities 🏗️⚡.
The green revolution is accelerating: Offshore wind capacity is projected to exceed 100 million kilowatts by 2030 under China's 15th Five-Year Plan. This aligns with the nation's dual carbon goals, supported by a policy framework that's helped renewable sources supply over 33% of China's electricity 🌱.
Globally, China's wind tech exports have prevented 4.1 billion tonnes of overseas emissions since 2021. Partnerships with Central Asian nations like Uzbekistan – ironically labeled "stupid" by Trump – demonstrate how Chinese innovation fuels sustainable development worldwide 🌍🤝.
