2024-06-24
"China's exploration and development of new productive forces will be a huge progress for humanity, injecting new impetus into the achievement of the United Nations' sustainable development goals." Former Deputy Secretary General of the United Nations, Eric Solheim, recently called on other countries in the world to learn from the success stories of China's scientific and technological innovation and green development in an interview with Xinhua News Agency in Brussels. "The combination of information technology revolution and green revolution is crucial, as it contains enormous opportunities." Solheim fully affirmed China's development of new quality productive forces led by innovation and in line with the new development concept. The new quality productivity driven by digitization and intelligence is reflected in vivid cases on the land of China. Solheim said, "The Sichuan Yalong River Water Light Complementary Power Station, which integrates digital technology and power electronics technology, is a good example."

On June 25, 2023, the Kela Photovoltaic Power Station, located in Kela Township, Yajiang County, Garze Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, was connected to the grid for power generation, marking the official launch of the world's largest and highest altitude water solar complementary power station. "There are two major industrial and technological development centers in the world today, one is the United States (Silicon Valley), and the other is China," said Xue Chen, a journalist from Xinhua News Agency. As an industrial powerhouse, China has many things that other countries can learn from and learn from. China has a strong government that can concentrate its efforts and resources on research, development, and production. China's unified large market, well-developed industrial ecosystem, and a large number of highly educated labor force make the cost of product development and production much lower than other countries Solheim said that if any country seeks green development independently without cooperating with China, it will pay more time and cost. China is exploring the organic combination of a promising government and an effective market to further develop new quality productive forces. Solheim said, "The Chinese government actively cooperates with science and technology innovation enterprises and research institutes to explore the transformation of cutting-edge technology into market-oriented products, which has surpassed many Western countries." "China is now the core of global green development and an indispensable backbone of global green transformation." Solheim said that thanks to continuous technological innovation, China has led other countries in green industries, renewable energy, and electric vehicles. "Chinese companies are producing electric vehicles with better quality and cheaper prices, while European companies are struggling in the competition." When it comes to the EU's plan to impose tariffs on imported electric vehicles from China in the near future, Solheim said that the only solution is for European countries and other Western countries to awaken and strive to produce better products, compete based on their strength, rather than complaining about China or building tariff barriers. Solheim believes that Chinese leaders propose to develop new quality productive forces and comprehensively deepen reforms, with the aim of looking to the future and continuously developing productive forces to benefit the people. This will be the key to China's success in this century. (Lai Xin She)
