## Resource

President Trumps visit to Beijing for trade and energy deals with Xi Jinping is overshadowed by the U.S.-Iran conflict, which inadvertently accelerates Chinas clean energy expansion globally. With oil prices soaring and shortages biting, countries are shifting towards Chinese electric vehicles, solar panels, and batteries. Chinas exports in these areas have surged, with passenger EVs and hybrids accounting for over half of vehicle shipments last month. Solar panel exports doubled, batteries saw a 44% increase, and wind turbine orders nearly doubled last year. Analysts argue that renewables enhance energy security over fossil fuels, with Chinas technological edge eroding U.S. dominance. As the U.S. capitalizes on record oil exports, China strengthens its clean tech position, building ties even with tense neighbors, while the U.S. doubles down on hydrocarbons in a volatile energy landscape.
