| China is simply betting on all horses: solar, wind, thorium, batteries, coal even, anything to not buy foreign oil and be as independent, self-sufficient as possible.

It can make sense, economically, to keep building coal plants even if solar is cheaper if you’re building solar as fast as you can and still need more power. |
