The EU cut itself off from Russian oil and gas. Industrial energy costs are already two to three times higher than its competition, and that’s even before the new shock with energy supply from the Middle-East being cut off. And their move is to deliberately raise the cost and slow down the rollout of Chinese solar, the cheapest and fastest-deploying form of electricity in the market, on the pretext it’s a security threat. You’d think the bigger security threat would be having your industrial base relocate to countries that didn’t voluntarily price themselves out of energy.
Don’t worry! That’s actually 100% A-Okay as long as the relocation isn’t in china
trust the plan
Is this just an extension of oligarchs prioritizing their portfolios in US stocks and the like or am I missing something
I can’t think of a better explanation
Yep, simple fossil fuel (and other) lobbying so they can get more government money instead, no matter how less efficient.
This makes more sense than all that blathering about “security”.
Nothing like screwing over Europeans to own the Chinese. I’m sure Xi is devastated.
Chinese companies when they find out that Europe doesn’t want their solar panels
So we’re really gonna give up on this suddenly very successful renewable switch and instead kill humanity just to own the Chinese huh
otherwise daddy would get mad
