6 FAQs about [Europe imports china s energy storage demand]
Are China's supply chains a threat to Europe's economy?
On the other hand, a variety of economic and security concerns have come to the fore as supply chains are increasingly concentrated in China, potentially threatening the viability of existing or emerging domestic industries in Europe, with negative implications for long-term growth and employment.
Does China's climate technology supply chain affect European trade?
The concentration of climate technology supply chains in China has raised security and economic concerns in Europe and may lead to increasing trade measures to limit dependencies on Chinese exports.
Could a small supply chain reduce Europe's dependence on China?
Given the type of concerns associated with dependence on China for this technology, maintaining a small but comprehensive supply chain within the Union could help reduce some of the risk of Europe’s dependence on China even though it is unlikely to lead to a competitive domestic industry in the foreseeable future.
What if Russia exports more gas to China?

The biggest risk is that, even with a surge of investment from China, products made in Europe continue to be more expensive. This risk requires actions to address structural issues that are more generally affecting competitiveness and driving deindustrialization.
What are the benefits of battery energy storage in Europe?
Increasing the use of renewables in the energy mix allows energy imports to be reduced, with clear benefits for Europe’s energy independence and security. The decarbonisation of the energy mix and reductions in overall CO2 emissions are other clear, positive outcomes of an increased use of Battery Energy Storage in Europe.
