Q&A
16:30-16:45China has spent the last two decades developing huge manufacturing capabilities in green tech, not only to decarbonise but to dominate global markets. To that end, industrial policy has been key for China to develop its industries as well as the space offered by a very lax regulatory environment as well as low carbon pricing. The EU’s approach is exactly the opposite. The question then is whether European and Chinese paths are to converge or diverge.
