Semms like damn good news in a way
In a way kinda. It's problematic though that China is using Uyghur forced labour to produce cheap solar panels.
This of course allows them to undercut any other manufacturer, driving them out of the market. So the delivery chain is getting kinda small and the products have forced labour attached to them.

So long as demand is high enough to keep the businesses afloat, absolutely.
