Solar panels stand at the Welspun Energy solar power plant in Neemuch, Madhya Pradesh, India. One sector in particular — electrical power transmission — will see $270 billion in financial benefits, according to Goldman Sachs. While utilities like the Power Grid Corporation of India may be perceived as unsexy, compared to growth stocks like Tesla, India plans to promote renewable energy without the taxpayer spending a single rupee. The country has added about 70 gigawatts of solar power capacity over the past decade without piling on further costs by simply maximizing the grid's usage. Currently, state governments in India levy surcharges and taxes on every unit of carbon-intensive energy transmitted through the grid.

Total generation increased by almost 63 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) (9%) compared with the same month a year earlier, according to the National Bureau of Statistics. Most of the increase was supplied by hydro-electric generation (+40 billion kWh) as the massive new Baihetan Dam on the Jinsha River compensated for poor rainfall. The rest came from thermal generators (+13 billion kWh), solar (+4 billion kWh), wind (+2 billion kWh) and nuclear generators (+2 billion kWh). Prolonged drought across southern China since mid-2022 has depressed hydro generation, requiring more thermal output to fill the gap, almost all from coal. RENEWABLE ROLLOUTChina is investing heavily in renewable generation to curb greenhouse gas emissions as well as reduce dependence on imported oil and gas.

Wind turbines and solar panels are seen at a wind and solar energy storage and transmission power station from State Grid Corporation of China, in Zhangjiakou of Hebei province, China, March 18, 2016. GLOBAL REACH WITH BACKHAUL POTENTIALChina's recyclers also have strong international supply lines thanks to the country's vast export-oriented manufacturing sector and resulting dominance in global shipping container trade. ECO-FRIENDLY ECOSYSTEMSChina's plan to develop a large scale recycling sector for the renewables industry is in keeping with the country's practice of developing interdependent ecosystems around key industries. The country aims to develop similar strongholds in auto and electronics manufacturing, and may now extend that framework to the renewables energy sector, which Beijing has identified as a key industry for the remainder of this century. For recycling firms based elsewhere that had been planning to scale up their handling of older green energy equipment, the prospect of a government-backed competitor in China may be a cause for concern.
