China has long championed green development, and its commitment has become increasingly prominent in the 21st century. Over the past two decades, especially since 2013, the country has steadily transformed its economy by pursuing a low-carbon, green growth model. Supported by technological innovation and large-scale investment in renewable energy, this transition has produced remarkable results.

In September this year, I joined journalists from 13 countries as part of People’s Daily’s „Belt and Road Media Delegation” and visited the Jinping West Wind Power project, operated by China Datang Corporation Ltd., in southwest China’s Yunnan Province to explore this „green engine” standing above the clouds. From an observation deck at 2,200 meters, we witnessed firsthand the technological strength and ecological commitment behind China’s advanced green energy projects, with many participants praising it as a „model of energy transformation.”
