Energy: Growth, Supplies, and Dependencies

Chapter 12 in China Business 2.0, 2015, pp 67-68 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract PRC is the world’s biggest overall energy consumer. Once a major exporter of both oil and coal, China is increasingly relying on imports to cover its need for natural resources. The enormous appetite for energy has made power outages a regular problem—which could hamper future economic growth. The government, to some effect, has promoted reduction in energy intensity (energy consumed per unit of GDP), but absolute consumption continues to increase.
