Listened to a quite good podcast about #energy in #China with an academic expert. But the last question was on #Uyghur #forcedlabor and he answered it like it was a compliance issue, something to be managed.

I realized, though, that's how a lot of people see many #humanrights issues. As a risk to be managed or avoided. Not a moral imperative and an issue that, frankly, should be front and central to any supply chain discussion on #cleanenergy

Great to see that the latest report from #Japan's Renewable Energy Institute specifically mentions both #Uyghur #forcedlabor & #coal intensity as concerns with #China's dominance of global #Solar

One of the first times a #climate/#energy group in Japan, as far as I know, has raised this. Not surprised its REI, the most independent & expert led such org.

It finds that efforts to expand crystalline silicon manufacturing in the United States, Europe, Southeast Asia, and India, as well as improvements in recycling and the emergence of perovskite – pioneered by Japan, make the solar PV supply chain more robust.
