As China has developed a vast green industry at home, it is actively seeking overseas markets. The Chinese government is supporting that pursuit under the Green Belt and Road Initiative. Drawing on examples of Chinese green energy projects in Africa and Southeast Asia, this talk provides an overview of various models that China uses to support its green development cooperation. It makes some comparisons between Chinese and common Western models, discusses the financial, social, and environmental sustainability of Chinese green projects, and suggests some differences between the Green BRI and traditional BRI that could spur new prospects for global green development.
