China is boosting its lead in clean energy by supporting green technologies and new energy vehicle companies globally. Li Lecheng emphasizes China’s commitment to green manufacturing amid global climate challenges. China’s exports of electric vehicles, solar panels, and batteries surged to over $120 billion in the first seven months of 2025.

China’s dominance in clean technology manufacturing has reshaped the global energy transition, making renewable energy more accessible worldwide. Solar panel prices have plummeted to record lows, driving adoption of wind and solar power in developing nations. China’s exports are fueling a shift toward renewable energy sources globally.

The EU and US raise concerns over Chinese state subsidies enabling export undercutting of local manufacturers. Extensive state backing has given Chinese manufacturers a cost advantage, leading to global overcapacity in sectors like solar and batteries. Tariffs and restrictions are imposed to counter unfair subsidies and protect domestic industries.

Despite protectionist measures, China’s clean energy deployment continues to surge globally. Overcapacity in clean technology supply chains will persist, driving emerging markets to import energy transition products. China aims to expand wind and solar power capacity to 3,600 GW by 2035, requiring significant integration upgrades to ensure reliability.

To achieve its climate goals, China plans to strategically deploy future-oriented industries like hydrogen energy and carbon capture. The challenge lies in integrating fluctuating renewable power into the grid. China seeks to promote international cooperation in green infrastructure and maintain influence in the clean energy sector.
