Energy is likely more abundant in China. I am not sure about compute, but that must be part of reason for such drastic price differences.

They're leaving us in the dust on solar, while our current administration is still trying to put people in the ground to dig up more coal and die of black lung. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power_in_China
They're building more coal than anyone.

Also more nuclear than anyone, which one must assume you hate, because preferring solar requires you don't actually understand thing

Energy from coal in China decreased last year. The change is happening very quickly.
They also don't have to inflate profits for a coming IPO.
