Solar Powers a Sustainable Energy Future on Rayonier Land

LONDON, UK, September 8, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Amid a growing climate emergency and cost of living crisis, China is playing a crucial role in helping Europe to embrace affordable renewable energy. In the GREEN SILK ROAD, CGTN Europe reporter Emma Keeling takes us on an epic journey across the continent to meet the companies and people who are benefiting from investment as part of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). From battery storage facilities in the UK; to solar power plants in Hungary and Greece; to wind farms in Spain; Chinese infrastructure and technology is also helping Europe to meet its ambitious green energy targets of reducing emissions and embracing renewables by 2030.

As Emma finds on her travels, the impact is not just being felt at a company or state level; ordinary people are benefiting immensely: whether it’s Kostas, the formerly unemployed security guard who has been retrained to operate a solar power plant in Greece and is now able to support his family financially; or the village in Segovia in Spain which is creating a new prototype for sustainable living thanks to Chinese solar energy technology; or Mate, the Hungarian graduate who was able to stay in his home country with his pregnant wife rather than seeking employment abroad thanks to a job with a Chinese firm- the reality is the Green BRI is having a deep and personal impact on ordinary people.

We also hear from prominent experts such as Christoph Nedopil Wang, a member of the Belt and Road Initiative Green Coalition; Margaret Chen, the founder of the China-Spain club which fosters links between Chinese and Spanish businessmen; and Ignacio Herrero Ruiz, the Executive Vice President of CTG Europe and an expert in green finance and energy.

We will be left with a unique picture of how the Belt and Road Initiative is helping to reshape lives across Europe from the grassroots to the state level, building a greener future for all.
