Notes:

 

 China is world's largest maker of wind turbines, and manufacturer of solar panels

 

 Multinational corporations are building factories in China, since it is a important place to be when it comes to renewable energy

 

 China's economy is benefitting greatly from it since they are also exporting power equipment as well

 

 China has generous subsidies to consumers for installing solar panels on rooftops and solar water heaters

 

China has the ability to provide the rest of the world with renewable enregy resources, yet some countries such as the U.S. still does not want to depend on imported equipment

 

Looking further into the future, I beleive China will still be the leader in providing the most energy efficient equipment
