China''s solar exports in 2022 grew by 64% to US$52 billion. Chinese exports mainly consist of solar modules, with Europe being the destination for 56% of the share of exports in 2022. [50] As of at least 2023, solar power in China is cheaper than coal-fired [51]
The emphasis on solar power is the latest installment in a two-decade program to make China less dependent on energy imports. China''s solar exports have already drawn urgent responses. In the United States, the Biden administration has introduced subsidies that cover much of the cost of making solar panels and part of the much higher cost of installing them.

As the significance of solar in the EU''s energy mix grows, this high exposure to China bears a weaponisation risk that has consequences for energy security and climate risks. A disruption in supply, such as for geopolitical reasons, could hamper the EU''s ability to keep pace with the rising demand for renewable electricity and the rollout of installations.
"The findings highlight a crucial energy transition point, not only for China but for other countries, at which combined solar power and storage systems become a cheaper alternative to coal-fired electricity and a more grid-compatible option," said Michael B. McElroy, the Gilbert Butler Professor of Environmental Studies at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of …
