Experts and academics are voicing concerns over the European Union's recent decision to limit imports of green energy products and technologies from the Chinese mainland.
In an insightful interview with the South China Morning Post, Nobel laureate in economics, Michael Spence, highlighted China's leadership in solar, electric vehicle (EV), and battery technology. He argued that Western nations' move to block China's exports of these critical components necessary for the global energy transition is a significant misstep.
\"The cost of that is very high in terms of the sustainability agenda,\" Spence warned, emphasizing that such restrictions could impede progress toward global sustainability goals by limiting access to essential green technologies.
