Also, all of these stories are about generation for distribution. It's not counting all of the people that are standing up their own systems to take load off the grid.
I wonder who will be the first country to put sanctions on US oil? How can WE be allowed to do this to a sovereign country that has done NOTHING to us? Where is the UN?

I kind of understand China's position because Chiang Kai-shek was worthless in WWII and would have been a horrible dictator if he had ruled China. Good thing MacArthur didn't get to nuke China like he wanted to. So yeah, there is history and a lot of pride, but China's obsession with taking Taiwan back seems to me to be a just let it go and get on with your lives situation. Borders change.

Cuba is having a Huge boom in solar thanks to trump's oil embargo. They are getting assistance from China. So trump is helping the alternative energy sector and driving people into the arms of our adversaries. Not to mention the boom to the Chinese solar industry (also lithium batteries and other equipment).
better hurry up because they ran out of fuel due to the blockade.

There is a huge boom in Chinese EVs and plug in hybrids here. Started before the embargo but really speeding up with the big jump in petrol prices and diesel in short supply. So with that there is a boom in solar and batteries so you can plug in at home. The supplier of those are almost all Chinese companies. I wouldn't buy Tesla anyway, but they apparently screwed customers by not supporting older systems.
Mine is on order and I made sure it had the connectors for plugging in an EV, if I ever get one. No where near the size of your solar so I hope it is enough. Some of the energy companies here offer free electricity for a 3 hour period in the middle of the day when there is excess generation in the system, so people charge their batteries then if they aren't generating enough themselves. Then charge the EV at night
So yeah, the Chinese are doing well as long as they can source the fuel that they still need to import

At least it's better for the planet and countries' self-sufficiency/independence. You got Don Quixote.

That is in Mexico? Or Southern Cali?
