China will continue to work with all parties to boost green development and make positive contributions despite some countries’ suppression of green technologies.
The remarks were made by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun on Wednesday, when commenting on China’s contributions to global renewable energy power sector.
Guo said that China’s pursuit of a green and low-carbon development path is an intrinsic requirement for promoting high-quality economic development and it also injects momentum to the global response to climate change and the advancement of sustainable development.
In 2024, four out of every 10 kilowatt-hours of electricity generated in China came from clean energy. As the world’s largest exporter of clean technologies, China has created 46 percent of the jobs in the global renewable energy sector, said Guo.
According to the International Renewable Energy Agency, the average cost per kilowatt-hour of electricity for global wind power projects has decreased by more than 60 percent over the past decade, and for photovoltaic power projects, it has decreased by more than 80 percent. Much of this progress is attributed to China’s contributions, Guo stated.
