Nuclear and renewables are part of overall energy production in China to a far greater proportion and absolute number than in the US. China has a smaller nuclear fleet capacity than the US and meets a much smaller percentage of its electricity needs with nuclear power: https://pris.iaea.org/PRIS/CountryStatistics/CountryDetails.aspx?current=CN https://pris.iaea.org/PRIS/CountryStatistics/CountryDetails.... https://pris.iaea.org/PRIS/CountryStatistics/CountryDetails.aspx?current=US https://pris.iaea.org/PRIS/CountryStatistics/CountryDetails.... As of 2023 US got 18.55% of electricity from nuclear power (775 terawatt hours) while China got 4.86% (433 TWh). As of 2023 China does get a larger share from renewables: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_sector_in_China#Production_and_capacity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_sector_in_China#Pr... https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=427&t=3 https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=427&t=3 It's 29.1% renewables in China (2,756 TWh) vs. 21.4% (894 TWh) in the United States. Grouping nuclear and renewables together as low-emissions sources, the US gets 47.65% of its electricity from low-emissions sources and China gets 33.96% from low-emissions sources. China is building nuclear and renewable sources faster than the US, so will narrow the gap over the rest of the decade, but it's also growing its total electricity consumption faster.
