China has cemented its status as the world’s green tech powerhouse, with a senior official confirming the country now boasts the largest and most complete new energy supply chain on Earth. From solar panels to electric vehicles (EVs), the nation is charging ahead in the race for sustainable solutions.
By the Numbers:
Solar Dominance: China has supplied 70% of global photovoltaic equipment for 16 consecutive years.
Wind Power Wins: Holds 60% of the world’s wind power equipment market.
EV Revolution: 35.2% of vehicles sold in China are now electric – beating other major economies.
Zhao Chenxin, deputy head of China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), highlighted these milestones during Thursday’s National Ecology Day celebrations. He credited the country’s 7.3% drop in energy intensity (2018-2023) to its cutting-edge green infrastructure.
With new NDRC guidelines for green transition released last week, China’s eco-push is gaining momentum. Experts say this tech dominance could reshape global energy markets – and help your future smartphone or EV stay charged sustainably.
