In China (I live there since 201708) the nuclear program is winding down (the most recent nuclear plant, Taishan, started 14 months ago and already has one reactor stopped after a leak). Nuclear plants produce less than 5% of the gridpower, and they plan for it to produce 7.7% of the gridpower by 2035!

Renewable energy plants produce 27.32% of the gridpower, and projects are everywhere.
Carbon emissions are growing simply because the economy is booming even faster.
