the material gain on chinas part is probably providing support for the panels (repair, technical calls, etc). theres also razor thin margins on panels in china rn so getting rid of older less efficient panels in exchange for long term support is probably a good deal for them, might be net positive over the long run. plus theres the benefit of holding to socialist values and having a very friendly country to trade with if you dont let their energy sector go to shit.
