- UK accelerates low-carbon transition via solar energy but relies on China for 68% of 2024 panel imports, creating ethical and geopolitical risks. - China dominates 80% of polysilicon production (including 40% from Xinjiang, linked to forced labor concerns) and 70% of global solar inverter. .
China is one of the biggest producers of solar panels, wind turbines, and battery storage systems. Many of the UK’s renewable energy projects rely on Chinese-made parts because they are cheaper and widely available; therefore, if China decided to stop supplying these materials, the UK could face.
