Abstract
The twin issues of energy and environment call for a systematic overview and evaluation of energy security status to highlight the role of energy system in the construction of sustainable and low-carbon society in China. This chapter establishes an evaluation framework from the perspective of energy supply, energy consumption, socioeconomic conditions, environmental impacts, as well as global warming to analyze in detail the energy system of China. Also, a security coefficient is introduced to provide a quantitative approach to measure the security level of China, which shows a decrease from 0.66 in 2001 to 0.30 in 2004. After the unveiling of “Energy Saving and Emission Reduction” in the 11th Five-Year Plan, a rising trend was observed from 2006 to 2009 with a peak in 2009 and a decline in 2006 implying that the goal of building a secure energy system has been preliminarily achieved. Incorporating the results obtained, suggestions are made to enhance the energy security of China.
