China add 191 gigawatt's electricty capacity in 2020, 70% of which is green energy

[52051]

The electricity capacity added in 2020 along, is enough to power half of the US (3.9 million gigawatt hour/year)

More importantly, 70% of the newly added capacity are green energy:

Including:
Thermal power: 56.37 gigawatt
Hydropower: 13.2 gigawatt
Windpower: 71.67 gigawatt
Solar power: 48.2 gigawatt

China is leading by example..

 

[Globenim]

Meanwhile "free" American state propaganda is trying to convince their poor indoctrinated population that China is running out of energy and closing shop because of some minor price hike on materials for about 1% of Chinas energy sector based entierly on anecdotal hearsay

 

[FuturePAF]

Is China building pumped storage hydro-electricity sites to deal with excess peak demand, or do they turn off a lot of power plants during off peak hours?

Also are they taking a large percentage of their coal fired plants out of commission?

Energy efficiency and conservation needs to be focused on too
