China added 212 GW of solar in just six months—more than the entire U.S. capacity. A Chicago-sized solar farm and record builds may mark the first structural decline in emissions, even as demand rises.

Trump calls wind and solar the “scam of the century,” but rising bills are tied to natural gas costs, surging demand, and aging infrastructure—not clean energy. Experts stress renewables are lowering prices and adding resilience.
