capacity factor in California.
It has built the

Although China is adding
wind and solar power
capacity at a rapid clip, after years of exporting
most of their solar panel output, the scale of the country's coal use doesn't lend itself to easy or quick substitution by these renewables.
It says this means brown coal and nuclear generating
capacity could fall quicker than
most people would expect from the average increase in solar and
