China’s influence on global energy markets is profound, with its technological advancements accelerating the worldwide transition to clean energy.

Over the past decade, China has increased its share of global clean energy investment from 25% to 33%, solidifying its leadership according to the International Energy Agency.

This rise is driven by strategic government policies like 'Made in China 2025,' which provided funding, subsidies, and support to develop domestic clean tech industries.

China applied for more than twice as many high-quality patents as the U.S. in 2022, reflecting its strategic focus on protecting and advancing its clean energy innovations.

China has emerged as a dominant force in the global energy sector, investing twice as much as the European Union and nearly as much as the EU and US combined, with a significant focus on clean energy.

China’s rapid deployment of clean energy technologies and effective policies serve as models for other nations aiming to develop their energy sectors.

China has shifted from a technology imitator to a global leader in clean energy innovation, with high-quality patent filings increasing from 18 in 2000 to over 5,200 in 2022.

Chinese companies such as BYD and CATL have surpassed Western firms by innovating in lithium-ion battery technology, making electric vehicles safer, cheaper, and more efficient, with a focus on patents in battery safety and performance.

China's technological advancements in wind and solar power are crucial for lowering the cost of green electricity, making it more competitive with fossil fuels.

China's extensive investments and supply chain development have significantly reduced global costs of clean energy equipment, with solar modules and wind turbines prices dropping by 60% and 50% respectively since 2022.

Chinese innovators now lead in patent filings for batteries and solar energy, while Europe remains dominant in wind energy and smart grids.

The country is also expanding into emerging technologies like carbon capture and smart grids to maintain its leadership in the energy transition.
