China's oil consumption is pretty insane when you consider how invested they are in solar. I guess oil does have the benefit of being fuel as well as storage and can sit in a Tank for a long time without losing any energy. But consider that China is the biggest buyer by far from several oil producing nations. In fact OPEC+ has tied oil prices to the Chinese economy for a few years now. Chinese demand for energy is ludicrous.
