There has been a lot of coal construction, in fact, about 95 gigawatts of power within the early half of 2024. Now, that's the most coal-fired power plants that China has built since 2015. However, this report also notes that there has been an unprecedented surge in renewables, in wind and solar in particular. In fact, the report notes
