China's Renewable Energy Revolution New
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
SPERI Research & Policy. Building a sustainable political economy. China's formidable energy system, which has powered the nation's rise as workshop of the world and thereby lifted hundreds of millions of its people out of poverty, is undergoing dramatic changes. China's industrial transformation started, like that of all previous industrial powers, with extensive reliance on fossil fuels, principally coal for electric power and oil for transport. But China is now running into the limits of this fossil-fuelled expansion, both for reasons of immediate environmental degradation (unbreathable air), energy insecurity (imports from problematic parts of the world) as well as increasing international pressure over carbon emissions. An alternative has to be found. John Mathews and Hao Tan describe how an alternative is indeed being developed. No inscriptions
