1st Edition
by Zhenya Liu (Author)
The acute energy problems facing
China today are characterized by their own histories and realities. Some
have come about because of China's energy endowment and stage of
development, while others have been created by a combination of domestic
and global factors. Some are the results of an accumulation of
longstanding contradictions, while others are new challenges posed by
the new order. There are no "miracle cures" to solve these problems
instantly. What is needed is a tireless enquiry, with goals, planning
and procedures, guided by a clear energy strategy. With China's
increasing dependence on foreign energy sources, and the global energy
situation and greenhouse gas issue exerting an increasingly prohibiting
effect on China's energy development, energy diplomacy has become an
important component of Chinese diplomatic affairs.
Based on
a "broad energy outlook", this book studies and analyzes China's energy
issues and energy strategies from the perspective of electric power.
- Discusses
a variety of issues, including energy transportation and allocation,
end-user consumption, markets, early warning and emergency, technical
innovation
- As a leading player in the power and energy area, China’s strategies attracts global attention
- Proposes the innovative idea of "Macro Energy Perspective"
- As
a key player in China's energy industrial circle, the author's
perspective can help global audiences to understand China's energy
strategies better
Electric Power and Energy in China
is ideal for government energy policy makers, engineers, scientists and
enterprise managers to understand China’s strategy in electric power
and energy. It is also a good reference for energy economics
researchers, consultants and university students.
