As far as I know China is not only the largest economy or about on par with the US, but has also made huge strides in renewables, so this makes sense actually, much as we are not used to hearing international bodies inviting China to lead. I would go as far as saying this is a case of China already leading the world - at least at home, not sure how clean or energy-efficient their offshore projects are.

There is much you don’t hear about China because it doesn’t fit the official narrative, and much you do hear which is distorted and/or unsubstantiated and/or simply untrue from western corporate media.

China is huge. They work a lot on green energy, but on the other hand they don’t care about opening a new coal plant each week.
We shouldn’t be giving them credit when their green initiatives are mostly just greenwashing and capitalistic in nature.
