Reply to comment by wart365 in China approves biggest expansion in new coal power plants since 2015, report finds | China by cosmic_fetus
China is both the largest coal power plant builder but also the largest renewable power investor.
In fact from 2020-2025, China’s renewable power mix is projected to grow from 28.5% to 36%, which exceeds their target of 33%.

Increasing the percentage of renewables is great but it isn't enough considering China is focused on high GDP growth.
If the economy grows so fast that they still need to add massive amounts of coal to meet their goals, we're still fucked.
