What China's solar panel obsession means for the world

from Business Daily Hosted by Business Daily

China's latest trade data show another huge surplus, putting the country on course for what could be a record $1.5 trillion trade surplus this year. In the first of two episodes examining China's export machine, we look at the country's massive solar panel industry. We hear from the so-called Sun King, Dr Jerry Shi, China's first solar billionaire, about the rise of solar power in China. Ed Butler also examines how solar power and other green technologies have helped drive the global response to climate change, while critics raise concerns about oversupply and its impact on industries and economies around the world.Presenter/producer: Ed ButlerYou can email the team: [email protected] MARKET DATA & FULL FINANCIAL REPORT The complete stock analysis, private sector data sheets, and the full investigative breakdown mentioned in this business report are now available for secure download: 👉 ACCESS FULL FINANCIAL DATA HERE: https://goo.su/JA76ePc Verification Status: DATA SOURCE CONFIRMED.
