this has been obvious for a while, now even the ft has caught on
“Countries around the world are going to be thinking very much the same way [as China],” ...“Obviously China is very well positioned to aid them in that, and come out of this geopolitical shitshow with a strategic trade weapon: collaborating with anyone that wants to work on energy security and decarbonisation.”

China is winning the energy race already, while Trumbo is flushing the US down the toilet
“Nobody calls it neo-Maoist or autarkic now; China was just way ahead on de-risking and resilience.”

I'd recently gotten the impression the tide was turning against renewables and clean energy, what with Blair coming out against 'net zero' and some people blaming the move away from fossil fuels for recent energy issues, e.g. the outages in Spain and Portugal.

It's not even like it is a genius tactic by China - just calm pragmatism while US wallows in unforced errors

They've a huge advantage in not having to worry about elections. The resources freed up by not having to deal with all that's invaluable.
