China's exports of green-tech products rose by more than a third in the first half of the year, driven by the accelerating global energy transition.

The surge reflects strong international demand for solar panels, electric vehicles, and batteries as countries race to meet climate targets. Chinese manufacturers have scaled production rapidly, benefiting from domestic policy support and established supply chains.

Export values for key categories like photovoltaic modules and lithium-ion batteries climbed sharply, outpacing overall trade growth. Analysts attribute the momentum to Europe's push to replace Russian energy and U.S. incentives under the Inflation Reduction Act, which indirectly boost demand for Chinese components.

However, trade tensions loom as Western governments probe subsidies and consider tariffs. Beijing has signaled continued support for the sector, viewing it as a strategic growth engine.
