Kiina senkun satsaa hiilivoimaan energiaomavaraisuussyistä

Ja niin kuin Ohisalo sanoi , Kiinalla on jo jotain merkitystäkin. Yleensä vaan sanoo väärässä kohtaa eli kun on tarve ajaa omaa agendaa. Meillä pitää olla vähän globaalimpi näkemys eli väheneekö ne päästöt vai nouseeko tällä nykysysteemillä, eikä tuijottaa vain omaan napaan ja satsata sattumasähköön.

China To Expand Coal Use As It Prioritizes Energy Security

Despite pledges to contribute to global efforts of reducing emissions, China will continue to maximize the use of coal in coming years as it caters to its energy security, the top Chinese policymakers said this week.

Chinese President Xi Jinping has told representatives from its biggest coal-producing region, Inner Mongolia, that China "could not part from reality" and that it is "rich in coal, poor in oil and short of gas," Reuters reported on Friday.

A few months ago, China ordered a ramp-up of coal production, which hit record-highs for both December 2021 and the whole of 2021.

China plans to increase its crude oil, natural gas, and coal production, boost reserves of energy commodities, and keep stable imports to ensure its energy security amid skyrocketing commodities prices, the top Chinese economic planner said last week.
