To be fair, chinas investment in solar actually was an evil plot. The solar industry that people are thinking of when they imagine alt power was a product of silicon valley waste. They were turning industrial garbage into pvs and the people doing it were ideologically green minded. The chinese state engaged in a corporate capture of that market and it's internal benchmarker in order to claim that their ever dirtier panels were cleaner year over year.
The end product of this is that...commercially, solar panels are dirty. As in completely filthy - from an ecological and social justice pov. Child slaves working dirty furnaces supplied by removal excavation in a corrupt system.
They're invested because they built it and needed to market it and knew they could market it. They're getting their dev power from an aggressive fossil fuel plant program. Imagine if the us built all it's fossil fuel infrastructure -and- it's alternative infrastructure at once. That's what china has been doing - just in living memory.
