And the IEA, for its part, expects China to continue to be the sole meaningful over-achiever. It recently revised upwards by 728 GW its forecast for total global renewables capacity additions in the period 2023–27. China’s share of this upward revision? Almost 90 percent. While China surges ahead, the rest of the world remains stuck.

Your report claims US gas-fired generation decreased in 2023. It is wrong, and I've described why. Your interpretation is even more misleading.

It's not my report.

It's the report linked in the article that is misquoting it.

I don't know if it's right or not. I know that it doesn't say what the article says it says. It doesn't support claiming the Chinese political system is the only one that can fix climate change.

That's as far as I can take it.

So no, I don't think my interpretation is "even more misleading".
