But Miliband sought to cool temperatures. “Despite the differences, we can find common ground,” he said.
“Problems like nuclear cooperation are problems where we can work with the United States, we could do it with a different perspective, but we can work together.”
On China, which did not send a delegation to the summit, Miliband said that “cooperation” on climate change was “evidence” but recognized concerns about the domination of Beijing of global supply chains for clean energy technologies such as solar, wind and electric cars.
“There is too much concentration on the clean energy market and one of the things we need is greater diversity,” said Miliband.
The solution, he said, was to promote the manufacture of technologies specific to the house, highlighting 300 million pounds of investment in investment newly announced by the embryonic state electricity company, GB Energy.
Reducing dependence on China “begins by taking a appropriate industrial policy seriously where you are starting to build it in Britain,” said Miliband.
The United Kingdom, he added, should imitate China’s economic success in the investment in the energy transition.
“Clean energy is also an economic opportunity, China recognizes it. Chinese growth was 40% higher last year because of their investment in clean energy. Why don’t we have them too? “
