China Leads Global Green Transition with Ambitious Green Tech Expansion and International Cooperation
  • Future‑oriented sectors highlighted include hydrogen energy, energy storage, bio‑manufacturing, and carbon capture, utilization and storage, with innovation as the core driver.

  • Officials quote perseverance and reaffirm commitment to green initiatives and a shared future for humanity despite shifting international dynamics.

  • China’s clean‑tech manufacturing dominance, accounting for a large share of global capacity, has driven down prices for solar panels and other renewables, accelerating adoption in developing economies.

  • Domestic targets imply significant grid integration and storage challenges, necessitating upgrades in grid infrastructure and market mechanisms to manage variable renewables.

  • Experts praise China’s leadership in R&D and large‑scale deployment of new energy technologies, positioning it as a global supplier of mature, cost‑effective green energy solutions.

  • China will deepen multilateral cooperation on green technologies and help its new energy vehicle, battery, and photovoltaic firms expand globally to accelerate a low‑carbon manufacturing transition.

  • China plans to promote international cooperation in green infrastructure and transportation, shape global green and low‑carbon regulations, and modernize its industrial system and green supply chains through comprehensive international collaboration.

  • China has collaborated with more than 100 countries on green energy projects, delivering tangible solutions for developing nations while driving economic growth.

  • The report cites statements from Li Lecheng and estimates from Ember and Bruegel on subsidies and trade impacts to frame the policy context.

  • Analysts warn that sustained state backing risks persistent overcapacity in clean‑tech supply chains, affecting trade and prices for years to come.

  • China points to a steep decline in global levelized costs for wind and solar over the past decade, noting reductions of more than 60% and 80% respectively.

  • Historical cost reductions for wind and solar are highlighted, with levelized costs down by over 60% and 80% in the last decade.

  • China reiterates substantial reductions in the global LCOE for wind and solar, quantified as over 60% and 80% in the past ten years.

  • Western protectionist responses include EU EV tariffs and US measures against Chinese hardware and software in connected vehicles, citing subsidies and national security concerns.

  • President Xi Jinping’s 2035 NDC targets aim to raise wind and solar capacity to about 3,600 GW and mainstream new energy vehicles in vehicle sales.

  • China intends to reach roughly 3,600 GW of wind and solar capacity by 2035 and mainstream NEVs in the vehicle market, signaling ambitious domestic targets to drive global expansion.

  • In September 2025, Xi announced the 2035 goal to expand wind and solar capacity to 3,600 GW and to mainstream NEVs in the market.

  • Li emphasizes the ecological civilization concept as the driver of the green transition and says the NDC targets are pragmatic and actionable for emission reductions.

  • From 2021 to 2024, China produced about 15.6 trillion kWh of PV modules, enabling roughly 3.2 trillion kWh of green electricity and a global CO2 reduction of around 2.5 billion metric tons.

  • Officials promote a philosophy of persistent action and global leadership in green initiatives, with industry leaders highlighting advantages in the industrial chain and scale to back overseas NE expansion.

  • Overall, Beijing’s strategy leverages manufacturing scale, policy support, and international cooperation to shape the global clean‑energy transition.

  • China has built the world’s largest new energy industry chain, exporting to over 200 countries and supplying a large share of global demand for PV modules and wind equipment, with many EVs on Chinese roads.

  • Technological innovation is the core driver of sustainable development, with near‑half of Chinese enterprises engaged in or planning green tech innovation as of 2024.

  • Minister Li Lecheng says China will push a green manufacturing transition toward high‑quality development, even as global climate governance faces headwinds.

  • The piece frames China’s green transition as a global contribution and a path to a shared future through green initiatives.
