Janet Yellen
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen speaks to reporters during her trip to China.
  • US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warns that China's big industrial-production push could destabilize the global economy.
  • China's growing clean energy industry has oversupplied markets with cheap solar panels and EVs, she said in prepared comments that will be delivered on Wednesday.
  • "It is important to the president and me that American firms and workers can compete on a level playing field," Yellen said in speech text released by the Treasury.

China is flooding markets with a lot of cheap green energy products, and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is concerned about what it means for the global economy.

Yellen is set to speak at the Suniva solar cell factory in Norcross, Georgia on Wednesday, where she is expected to address concerns about China's export strategy.
