摘要
This article summarizes the thinking behind the call for a revolution/an evolution in China’s energy production and consumption. China is still a developing country, though it has experienced fast economic growth in the past thirty years. It achieved great accomplishments surprising the world, and it is also confronted with challenges on energy supply and environmental protection. As environmental pollution becomes more and more serious, the energy challenges have become more and more complicated. With this in mind, the authors analyzed China’s energy situation, China’s energy supply and consumption, the world energy map, China’s commitment both to improving its domestic environment and fulfilling its international obligations to control climate change. Action plans are presented to support the call for a revolution/an evolution in China’s energy production and consumption as an effective assurance for China’s ambitious goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects.
