China’s Clean-Tech Exports Could Avoid 450 Million Tonnes of CO₂ in 2026
China’s rapidly expanding clean-tech exports could help avoid approximately 450 million tonnes of CO₂ globally in 2026, with solar panels, batteries, electric vehicles and wind turbines driving much of the impact. The Global South is emerging as a major beneficiary as affordable technologies accelerate renewable-energy adoption. Over their lifetimes, equipment exported in 2026 could prevent 8.4 billion tonnes of emissions, highlighting China’s increasingly influential, yet strategically complex, role in global decarbonization and energy security.
