1
Chinese-made solar panels are powering Africa's renewable energy boom.
2
Exports to the continent have continued to surge this year, with South Africa among the biggest buyers.
3
And this comes also as the West warns of a China shock 2.0.
4
CNA senior correspondent and senior China editor Olivia Xiang reports from Johannesburg.
5
For businessmen Kit and Naidu, South Africa's years of rolling blackouts are still hard to forget.
6
I think it affected my daily life quite bad because we use the Wi-Fi all the time and I'm a businessman, so I need to be connected all the time.
7
We obviously got frustrated to a certain point where, no, I'm not going to do this anymore.
8
I'm going to go out and get the solar panels.
9
He wasn't alone.
10
As load shedding worsened, households and businesses across South Africa turned to rooftop solar to keep the lights on.
11
We actually purchased it from the China mall.
12
They gave us a very good price.
13
I think it was about 30%, if not more, cheaper than the larger stores.
14
So we learned how to install it, and we installed it ourselves.
15
When it started coming to South Africa in the markets, people said, oh, no, this is cheap, this is cheap, you can't trust it.
16
So I think even the cars that's coming into the market, people are a little bit skeptical,
17
but those that's not skeptical is enjoying great value for a lesser price.
18
Affordable Chinese-made solar systems helped fuel South Africa's solar boom.
19
Now we've been driving around this industrial area that's just right next to the Johannesburg CBD
20
and already on this short stretch of road we've passed by maybe four, five or even more China malls.
21
These have really sprung up over the years, so much so that locals call this area now the new Chinatown.
22
Today, South Africa has gone more than a year without load shedding.
23
The various reforms adopted, the ESCOM turnaround has massively, massively helped with improving the power situation.
24
However, just the pure competitiveness of Chinese solar panel manufacturers has essentially really helped ease the cost.
25
South Africa's experience is increasingly being repeated across Africa.
26
The shift also reflects changes inside China.
27
As its economy moves beyond infrastructure-led growth, Beijing has placed greater emphasis on high-tech industries.
28
DR. What you see increasingly is areas such as green technology, solar, for example, where I think,
29
especially now, as we're in the middle of the Middle East tension and the energy shock that we have had,
30
where a lot of countries in Africa are really looking toward China for solar,
31
for electricity, that then can stimulate local production.
32
The numbers suggest that's already happening.
33
Chinese exports of solar cells and panels to Africa rose more than 80% in April from a year earlier.
34
South Africa remained the continent's biggest buyer, but demand is rising rapidly elsewhere too.
35
For distributor Yixin Zhou, that growing interest is easy to see, as Chinese manufacturers look beyond slowing demand at home.
36
So it's a strategy for all of these factories to look overseas.
37
And also Europe is very exaggerated.
38
There are a lot of brands in Europe as well.
39
There are a lot of brands in Asia.
40
So I've seen the change for them to start looking at African markets.
41
It's still not there yet, but more and more brands start to look at African markets
42
because it's more difficult for them to do business within China and also globally in any other countries.
43
Researchers say 20 African countries imported record volumes of Chinese solar panels in the year to June 2025.
44
suggesting South Africa's solar boom may be only the start of a much broader shift across Africa.

이 레슨에 대해
"Why Chinese solar is powering Africa's energy boom"으로 쉐도잉 기법을 사용해 영어를 연습합니다.
매일 15~30분 꾸준히 연습하면 IELTS 스피킹에 대한 자신감이 길러집니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
