China doesn’t have pesky things like human rights. It’s a lot easier to get these kinds of things done.

Except China actually completes these things. They installed more solar in 2023 than all other countries installed new power of all types combined.
They have more nuclear power plants than the rest of the world combined. They have more wind power than the rest of the world combined.
Oh, and they have more high and low speed rail than the rest of the world combined, and most of that was built in the last twenty years.

Unfortunately they’re also producing and burning the most coal. Hopefully they can stop that really soon.

They’re certainly trying. This project is part of that effort.
