Event details
To maintain the fast economic growth of China, its energy system is subject to many challenges and needs to undergo a systematic transformation. In this presentation, an up-to-date overview of the energy situation in China will be provided firstly, followed by a discussion on the underlying issues which cause energy wasting systematically by decomposing annual energy consumption into three categories as capital-formation-driven, export-driven and final-consumption-driven. Based on these understandings, an overall insight into China’s energy system and a holistic view of energy conservation strategy are illustrated.
