Xinhua News Agency, Nairobi (Reporter Yan Yujing) Kenya's mainstream media "The Star" recently published an article stating that China has proven with practical actions that ecological environment protection and economic modernization can go hand in hand. China has become an indispensable partner in the world's accelerated transformation to low-carbon growth.The abstract of the article is as follows:

As the world grapples with challenges such as climate change, energy security and sustainable economic growth, green development has become one of the most important priorities of this era.China’s experience shows that economic growth does not have to come at the expense of the environment.Through continued investments in solar, wind, battery technology and electric vehicles, China has proven that innovation can lower costs while making clean energy more accessible to countries at all stages of development.

Africa, with its abundant solar radiation resources, important wind energy corridors, geothermal resources and untapped hydropower potential, will benefit greatly from the transition to low-carbon growth.

China and African countries are increasingly cooperating in renewable energy, industrial parks and modern infrastructure, providing real opportunities to accelerate sustainable development and support economic diversification.This relationship has gone beyond traditional infrastructure cooperation and is expanding more towards manufacturing, digital innovation, research cooperation and green industrialization.These areas can create quality jobs, strengthen local value chains and position African economies within the emerging global industrial landscape.

Technology is becoming the bridge between sustainable development and prosperity.Smart grids are making renewable energy more reliable, advanced batteries are transforming transportation systems, and digital platforms are making business operations more efficient.China’s expanding expertise in these areas is contributing to a broader innovation ecosystem that benefits partners seeking to modernize their economies.

China has always advocated international cooperation, recognized the different capabilities and development needs of countries, and encouraged collective actions for common environmental goals.

In an era characterized by climate challenges and rapid technological change, green development is not only an inevitable requirement for environmental protection, but also becoming one of the most solid foundations for inclusive growth, making China a lasting partner in building a cleaner, more prosperous, and more interconnected future.(End)
