China's third-quarter GDP growth was 4.9 percent, but the first three quarters together registered a 9.8-percent increase year on year. Chinese authorities attribute the slowdown mainly to COVID-19, floods in north China, and the complex international environment. Against a widespread energy crunch in the European Union, the UK and elsewhere, how much strain has energy put on the Chinese economy? What accounts for this power shortage? Will the short-term measures affect the global plans to switch to clean energy?
