Bill McKibben, at NYRB: "China installed ninety gigawatts of solar capacity in May [of 2025?] alone, the rough equivalent of the capacity of ninety coal-fired power plants--more than any other country installed in all of 2024. China can produce solar panels at even higher rates and sell them to the rest of the world for prices so low that in some places they are now used for fencing (less efficient at producing power than those installed on roofs, but when they are so cheap, why not?). That this is a threat to the three-hundred year reign of fossil fuel can be deduced from the incredible efforts of the hydrocarbon industry to head off the transition."
