Huawei pivots to renewable energy as smartphones slump - U.S. sanctions force Chinese company to pursue solar power and storage projects
#Comment: China is already the world leader in all things renewables and is poised to significantly expand its technological and logistical lead in this crucial sector. Any other actor (nations, etc.) that wants to transform legacy energy systems to renewables, will inevitably have to deal with the Chinese and hence maintain somewhat positive relationships. Otherwise, all proclamations of energy transformation are just nice words. Case in point, recent headline from Germany - a country that is actively supporting the US-Empire lead war against China/Russia/Global-South/etc.:
Germany aims to get 100% of energy from renewable sources by 2035
