OIES Podcast – Ten years of China’s Belt and Road: what are the main energy trends?
1Description
In this latest OIES podcast, Michal Meidan and Ned Downie take stock of the Belt and Road Initiative, ten years after its launch. Ned talks about the key trends in energy and mining investments along the Belt and Road as well as the changes in sectors and geographies. Michal and Ned talk about the reasons for the shift away from oil, toward coal and now increasingly renewables as well as the learning curve for energy and mining companies in their outbound investments. They also discuss the emissions footprint of the project and how efforts to green the Belt and Road are playing out.
This episode is based on The Belt and Road Chapter in the Guide to Chinese Climate Policy 2022, which can be found here .
