THE REAL STORY BEHIND CHINA’S ENERGY POLICY—AND WHAT AMERICA CAN LEARN FROM IT --UNITED STATES SENATE REPORT

Executive Summary

  • The facts about ―clean energy‖in China are clear: non-hydro renewables, despite considerable government support, make up less than 1 percent of China’s energy portfolio—a fact that will change little over at least the next two decades.
    1. China is not leading a green energy revolution: it is leading a global race for oil, natural gas, coal, and nuclear power—energy sources fueling China’s growing population and economic growth.
    1. Rare earth minerals are necessary to produce wind turbines, solar panels, advanced batteries, energy efficient lighting, and many other energy technologies. China produces about 97 percent of the world’s supply, while the U.S. produces none. China’s dominance in developing rare earth minerals provides enormous trade leverage over American manufacturers. We should reduce this dangerous dependence by encouraging more domestic mineral production.
    1. A clean-energy manufacturing sector must have stable, affordable, energy costs to thrive and expand. Renewable energy mandates and cap-and-trade make energy more expensive, and would send manufacturing jobs overseas.

    Facts on China

    Coal

  • China is both the largest consumer and producer of coal in the world. China is using more coal than the United States, Europe, and Japan combined.
    1. China could account for 50 percent of global coal demand by 2035.

    Oil and Natural Gas

  • China is the world’s second largest oil consumer, behind the U.S., and the world’s fourth largest oil producer.
    1. China is investing in oil development projects in Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Myanmar, Kazakhstan, Nigeria, Venezuela, and Argentina.
    1. China will become the top natural gas consuming country in the Asia Pacific region, overtaking Japan by 2015.

    Nuclear

  • China aims to at least quadruple its nuclear capacity from that operating and under construction by 2020.
  • Renewables

  • The vast majority of China’s 15 percent renewable energy target will be met with new hydropower (dams) and new nuclear power plants.
  • The Bottom Line

    Point #1: Activists and the Obama Administration believe a ―price on carbon‖ and government mandates are essential for the U.S. to produce innovations in wind, solar, and other energy technologies. But in truth, such policies would be ruinous to jobs, new energy technology, and the global competitiveness of America’s manufacturers.

    Point #2: China is rapidly expanding by embracing the reality that fossil fuels, along with nuclear power, are the engines of economic growth and prosperity. Policymakers in the U.S. must also embrace this reality—and resist the misguided and unfounded temptation that government mandates are the pathway to America’s economic resurgence.

    Point #3: America has an array of clean energy technologies that are readily deployable. Their development can create thousands of jobs, provide affordable, reliable electricity, and keep America’s manufacturers globally competitive, especially with China. But environmentalists oppose nearly all of them.

    "Those Voices Don't Speak for the Rest of Us"

    "...the president has chosen to declare our memories of 9/11 obsolete and the sanctity of Ground Zero finished"

    9/11 Families Stunned by Presidents Support of Mosque at Ground Zero

    New York, NY, Aug. 14 — "Barack Obama has abandoned America at the place where America’s heart was broken nine years ago, and where her true values were on display for all to see. Since that dark day, Americans have been asked to bear the burden of defending those values, again and again and again. Now this president declares that the victims of 9/11 and their families must bear another burden. We must stand silent at the last place in America where 9/11 is still remembered with reverence or risk being called religious bigots.

    Muslims have worshipped in New York without incident both before and after the attacks of 9/11. This controversy is not about religious freedom. 9/11 was more than a “deeply traumatic event,” it was an act of war. Building a 15-story mosque at Ground Zero is a deliberately provocative act that will precipitate more bloodshed in the name of Allah. Those who continue to target and kill American civilians and U.S. troops will see it as a symbol of their historic progress at the site of their most bloody victory. Demolishing a building that was damaged by wreckage from one of the hijacked planes in order to build a mosque and Islamic Center will further energize those who regard it as a ratification of their violent and divinely ordered mission: the spread of shariah law and its subjugation of all free people, including secular Muslims who come to this country fleeing that medieval ideology, which destroys lives and crushes the human spirit.

    We are stunned by the president’s willingness to disregard what Americans should be proud of: our enduring generosity to others on 9/11–a day when human decency triumphed over human depravity. On that day, when 3,000 of our fellow human beings were killed in barbaric act of raw religious intolerance unlike this country had ever seen, Americans did not turn outward with hatred or violence, we turned to each other, armed with nothing more than American flags and countless acts of kindness. In a breathtakingly inappropriate setting, the president has chosen to declare our memories of 9/11 obsolete and the sanctity of Ground Zero finished. No one who has lived this history and felt the sting of our country’s loss that day can truly believe that putting our families through more wrenching heartache can be an act of peace.

    We will honor the memory of our loved ones. We will protect our children, whose lives will never be the same. We will not stand silent."
