China, the world's leading pollution emitter, is set to reach its 2030 clean energy targets this month, six years earlier than planned. This achievement is attributed to the nation's dedication to harnessing solar and wind power alternatives. The Global Wind Energy Council's 2024 report revealed that China commissioned a record-breaking 75GW of new installations last year, accounting for nearly 65% of the global total.
