I don't mean to be unfair to China - they're taking the issue seriously and doing some excellent work in developing PV and battery production capacity, but there are some real concerns about their broader approach.

The rising domestic demand for electricity combined with the huge increase in coal generation capacity is a potential timebomb in China's energy mix.
