More than that, which many probably may not have realized yet, China is building a future that relies less on fossil fuel and eventually dispelling the fear of blockade of energy to destroy China's manufacturing economy, that the USA had been putting in place for decades. We probably have not yet fathom how determined the Chinese are in migrating to renewables. China had already turned to electrification of its transportation system, with high-speed rails, adoption of EVs and phasing out Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) vehicles, the one big sector guzzling on fossil fuel. China is killing two birds with one stone - weaning the Chinese population away from fossil fuel and cutting down on air pollution resulting from the exhausts of ICE vehicles.
I do not have to talk about China's renewable energy generation from its expanding solar panel fields and wind turbines. Suffice to say that China is also killing two birds with one stone, rearing cattle feeding on grass under solar panel fields. There is practically no need to mow the grass under those solar panel fields, as the sheep and cows are doing the necessary. Think of the ingenuity.
What I need to talk about is China now making small nuclear power generators that are coming on-line to power smaller cities. China is also thinking of exporting them to countries that relies mostly on fossil fuel. Think of the consequence for those trying to use fossil fuel weaponization next by attempting to take control of all the oil production countries globally.
Sure, all these takes time, but China has all the time. The Chinese are masters of patience, as one Indian political commentator said.
