Coal-fired power plants and plants which function with other fosil fuels such as oil or natural gas, are still the cheapest energy source. Changing the production model and implementing renewable and environmentally friendly energy sources requires extremely high investments..

The growth model in China is based on cheap exports which require  efficiency hence, producing at a lower cost than other international competitors so that their products are more attractive for consumers in the international markets due to their low price. <u>If large investments are accomplished to implement renewable energy resources, production costs would rise spectacularly, spoil the competitiveness of Chinese products and slow the country's growth level. </u>

What is one way a command economy affects the lives of private citizens
Ulleksa [173]
Let's take a look at some command economies: today: North Korea

In the past: The Soviet Union.

We can see that in both cases the countries failed to provide enough food and supplies for their citizens, so one way that command economies influence the citizens of the countries that had them was by inducing hunger.  (the same is not true of mixed economies, or not always true).
