In a farewell address, outgoing US President Joe Biden cautioned his successor Donald Trump about the urgent need to address China's overcapacity and dominance in the clean energy supply chain. Biden emphasized that this competition is one the US 'must win' to ensure its economic and environmental future. As the world shifts towards renewable energy, the US is under pressure to catch up with China's lead in solar and wind power technologies. With clean energy becoming a key battleground, the US must invest in innovation and infrastructure to stay competitive. Key areas of focus include energy storage, smart grids, and sustainable development.
