A century ago, the shift from coal to oil defined global dominance. Today, a new energy transition is rewriting the rules of power. As China takes a commanding lead in green technologies, its pragmatic approach is not only addressing climate change but also reshaping geopolitical influence and offering a new, more accessible path to energy self-sufficiency for developing nations.
China has unveiled a revolutionary plasma-based engine that outperforms conventional electric and hydrogen propulsion systems, marking a significant leap in space exploration technology. With its potential to enable faster and more efficient missions, such as trips to Mars, this breakthrough positions China as a key competitor to NASA and Russia in the race for deep-space innovation.
China has unveiled Tiangong, an open-source humanoid robot that promises to revolutionize the robotics industry. Standing at 163 cm tall and powered entirely by electricity, Tiangong combines advanced capabilities with a flexible platform for global collaboration. Its agility, adaptability, and open-source framework make it a game-changer in both industrial and household applications. As part of China’s broader strategy to lead the global robotics market, Tiangong represents not just technological innovation but also a commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.
China, once a major polluter, is surprisingly leading the global charge in renewable energy. With two-thirds of the world’s wind and solar projects under construction in China, the nation boasts a staggering 180 gigawatts of solar and 15 gigawatts of wind power underway. This ambitious push positions China at the forefront of the clean energy transition.
