Abstract: Shenzhen is a typical city of southern China. The current situation of natural gas utilization in Shenzhen is introduced. The experience of world energy consumption, especially the development trends of natural gas is reviewed. According to the characteristics of the economic development trends and the energy utilization planning in Shenzhen, the development prospect of natural gas utilization in Shenzhen is comprehensively analyzed. After the analysis, it is pointed out that natural gas will be a vital new source of energy utilization in Shenzhen. In the meanwhile, the problems and solution of interchangeability, price and alternate energy source in the natural gas development trend in Shenzhen are discussed. The results of the current study can be used as guidelines for the natural gas utilization and CO 2 emission reduction in other cities of southern China. Copyright , Oxford University Press.
