      Their plan was always to use energy to become the next superpower. England built an empire using coal. USA had built their currently hegemony on oil. China thinks their shot to greatness is clean tech, so they produce batteries, solar panels, wind turbines and try to make a new generation of nuclear plants.

        Everything you listed that China is doing seems good. Wish USA would lead, instead wasting billions on oil subsidies
