CHINA X Cleantech — 1st Edition
China is the largest emitter of CO2. It has also firmly cemented itself as a global leader in clean technologies. Sooner or later, we will see Chinese electric cars sold globally, and Chinese solar cells and solar panels already dominate global sales. In early editions of CHINA X Cleantech, we’ll spend some time figuring out who’s who and what does what.

The last week of the year is always a little surreal to me. Much of the working world shuts off. Much news shuts off. But we typically roll through it all like any other day, and the news that does slip into the end of the year has a special tint.
This past week, the hottest stories on CleanTechnica were:
EIB & Yes Bank Partner For $400 Million Solar, Wind Funding In India
The European Investment Bank has partnered with a private Indian bank to provide debt funding to large-scale solar and wind energy projects in India.
#TeslaCities … German Solar Record … Tesla Model 3 vs 22 Competitors … (Top 30…
The year just wrapped up here in Europe. Below were the 30 most popular articles of the year here on CleanTechnica. Naturally, despite a slower production ramp than expected and planned, the big cleantech story of the year was the Tesla Model 3. However, no article about that car won the top spot. Surprisingly, the top spot was won by a piece I very quickly put together after almost deciding to go to bed instead. I think there’s really something to that article’s success, and I think Tesla would be wise to consider it — but that’s a discussion for another day.
Reality Check — Correcting The Cleantech Record
We love journalism. We need journalism. We need local journalism, high-access national journalism that puts a check on the power elite, and deeply investigative journalism that goes where few would dream to go. If people truly respected one of the great thinkers behind the forming of the United States, they would respect that the work of journalists is valuable — critical — to a democratic society. Thomas Jefferson said:
Under Trump’s Nose, Wyoming Wind Energy Set To Explode
Trump or no Trump, Wyoming makes a good case for transitioning out of coal and into wind energy, with more benefits for local ranchers.
Dutch Utility Proposes Artificial North Sea Island & Massive Offshore Wind Farm
Dutch utility company TenneT is proposing a bold new plan to construct an artificial island in the North Sea to act as a hub for a massive offshore wind farm installation.
Why I Don’t Debate Climate Change
I no longer debate global warming and climate change. When I’m confronted with a denier, I ask how either of us, not being experts in the field, could ever hope to resolve a climate science debate? Nothing gets accomplished and this usually shuts down deniers completely. If they keep going, I ask who benefits if climate change is not occurring? Of course, we know the fossil fuel (FF) industry is the big winner. Individuals in a climate debate, regardless of side, gain very little if anything.
