🇨🇳 China massively leads global solar deployment. It has converted its parking lots and rooftops into power plants. In 2024, it reached its 1.2 TW wind and solar goal, 6 years ahead of the 2030 target.

Mercury is different and beautiful in its own way. It has a global magnetic field, but its very weak. It is offset from the planet's equator and barely holds the solar wind this close to the Sun.

In the last 30 years, Europe’s over-reliance on a sole supplier through the Russian energy, its shift away from nuclear power, and the outsourcing of solar technology to China have deteriorated its geoeconomic and geopolitical landscape. Change it now!

1. Somalia has one of the highest wind and solar energy potentials on the planet. Wind and solar resources are suitable for power production on 85% of Somalia. 2. An engineer from SSC area designed this wind turbine and wind mill from a scrap metal and plans to scale it up. 3. Abundant renewable sources, long coastline with assortment of fish and crustaceans coupled with lots arable land, Somalia needs serious commitment in infrastructure to realize its potential of this unique position of being number one in the planet in renewable resources.

Wind and solar are sold as clean and sustainable, but eventually the hardware becomes waste. The US currently has 76,000 wind turbines and 650 million solar panels installed. The turbine blades alone represent 5.5 million tons of eventual waste. Existing US solar panels represent another 18 million tons. Unlike conventional power plants that can operate for 50 to 80 years or more, wind turbines and solar panels require replacement after 15 to 20 years (shorter by some studies). By 2050, cumulative global waste is projected to reach 200 million tons of wind turbine blades and 78 million tons of solar panels. Turbine blades are nigh on impossible to recycle. Solar panels are technically easier, but recovering many embedded materials is often expensive and uneconomic. Much of it ultimately faces the same destination: landfill. Wind and solar are labelled renewable, but there's nothing renewable about them.

India has made substantial progress in renewable energy in recent years. Total renewable capacity has surged from 76 GW in 2014 to over 250 GW today with solar recording massive 50 times increase. 30 lakh homes have installed subsidised solar plants in last two years with 70 lakh more in the pipeline. 23 lakh solar pumps have been installed too. India now ranks 4th globally in total installed renewable energy capacity, 4th in wind power, and 3rd in solar power. Non-fossil fuel sources now exceed 50% of India's total installed power capacity, achieving the 2030 Paris Agreement target 5 years early. This is not to say India doesn't face massive environmental challenges. But how does gaslighting help?

China is blowing the world away on clean energy. As of 2025, it has 448 GW of wind and solar under construction, more than any other country and roughly half of the global capacity currently being built.

China sets a 2026 GDP growth target of 4.5–5%, aligning with its 2035 goal of becoming a mid-level advanced economy. With 2.6% of GDP on R&D and a 40% investment rate, China leads in innovation-to-production scaling, dominating EVs, solar, and telecoms. Trade shifts toward the Global South, offsetting US protectionism, while Europe partners on green tech. Once a tech follower, China now exports innovation, reshaping global growth dynamics. The 15th Five-Year Plan will double its tech leadership industries.

The world has spent $7 trillion on wind and solar. That global fleet produces an average of around 630 GW. The same $7 trillion could have built roughly 1,400 modern nuclear reactors, producing around 1,400 GW on average -- so more than twice the power. Wind and solar generally last around 20 years (a lot less by some estimates), whereas nuclear plants can operate for 80 years or more. Over 80 years, wind and solar must be built four times -- a cost of $28 trillion to maintain 630 gigawatts. The same $28 trillion spent on nuclear would deliver roughly 5,600 gigawatts -- nearly nine times the power. Also, nuclear produces this regardless of the weather, whereas wind and solar require 24-7 backup (usually gas, not included in these calculations).

Most renewable electricity in the world is not wind or solar, it is hydropower. Hydro produces about 14% of global electricity, and more than half of all renewable power. It is reliable, dispatchable, and produces virtually no CO2 - yet many environmental groups oppose new dams. The same contradiction appears with nuclear power. Nuclear produces zero operational CO2, runs 24 hours a day, and uses far less land than wind or solar. If cutting emissions were truly the priority here, the focus would be obvious: Hydropower and nuclear, not endless wind and solar expansion.

China operates more wind turbines and has more wind power capacity than any other country in the world. It features massive onshore arrays like the Gansu Wind Farm as well as rapid offshore expansion along its coasts, producing roughly 10% of its total electricity from wind.

Germany built one of the largest wind and solar fleets on Earth. It dismantled its nuclear power stations and retired its coal, with the promise that green energy would power its future. The country spent billions transitioning. Then winter arrived, and Dunkelflaut hit - the dark windless dead zone. Wind and solar fell to barely 5% of demand. The grid staggered, and Germany was forced to fire up old coal plants it said had closed forever, and import expensive nuclear from France. This is the physics politicians fail to mention, and a point many people still fail to grasp. When the wind dies and the sun sets, renewables disappear. And the only way the grid survives, the only reason countless millions don't freeze to death, is thanks to oil, coal, nuclear and gas.

If emissions reduction were the real goal, nuclear would already dominate. First off, it is the safest energy source per unit of power produced. Secondly, it has the lowest life cycle CO2 emissions, lower than coal, gas and even wind and solar. Thirdly, nuclear runs 93% of the time. Wind and solar don't come anywhere near that, just 33% and 23% respectively. And on top of all that, a one gigawatt nuclear plant fits on about one square mile and powers 750,000 homes. Wind and solar require vastly more land, materials and backup batteries for the same power. If climate alarmism were serious, the answer would be nuclear.

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: ‘China🇨🇳 is bigger than the US🇺🇸 economy, that’s not a myth that’s a reality. China is far bigger in industrial capacity. China is ahead of the United States on many technologies… It will dominate electric vehicles for 20 years to come. It will absolutely dominate solar power production.
