Coal fell in June too.
Looks like 2023 was the peak year of emissions unless something extraordinary happens in H2 of 2024. That's 7 years ahead of schedule. Xi deserves huge amount of credit for pushing this so aggressively.

Yes, China probably will reach peak emission 7 years ahead of schedule.
A Chinese company will build the world's largest energy storage facilities in Saudi Arabia.
my analysis of the June power changes. Great for environment.
here is their longer report on June. I find the steel section especially interesting. It talks about new policies to support scrap steel. Not only is that better for environment, but also better for import bill of iron ore.
Steel demand will decline as housing market cools down as well.
Hopefully this switch to renewables generates a sort of positive feedback loop where lower energy costs > lower production costs > more renewables > lower energy costs
Imagine a fleet of fully automated factories producing renewables powered by renewables. We are almost at the point of sci fi.

Another 4 years of Trump means further back sliding for America's energy transition. Which I think means China will become the main green energy trading platform of the world. Huge implications here.
