Electric Power and Energy in China (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

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.

Rezensionen

Praise for Electric Power and Energy in China:

"The Broad Energy Outlook approach tries to place thecomplex Chinese energy problem in a multi-angled and globalprospective so that China will stop struggling within its narrowlydefined and inward-looking supply-demand rigidity on energy.

Overall, I find Electric Power and Energy in China anexcellent book with significant academic value. It provides anessential reference for academics, policy makers and students whohave a strong interest in China's economy and energydevelopment. The data included in this book and Liu'spersonal experiences and expertise as chairman of China's,and indeed the world's, largest electricity distributioncompany are highly informative and
valuable for both insiders and outsiders of the Chinese energy andelectricity industries."

University of Nottingham

"Zhenya Liu's Electric Power and Energy inChina points out that the main challenges in China todayare in meeting the growing energy demand of a large population in afast growing, emerging economy. The current main source of energysupply in the country is coal, however, all technologies are neededto secure an adequate supply of energy. Accordingly, Liu does notfocus on one technology; he provides an overview ofChinese perspectives on all available options.

Electric Power and Energy in China gives aninteresting insight into the Chinese energy challenge and theenergy system - not from an outsider's perspective butfrom the core. As head of China's Energy Commission, ZhenyaLiu knows what he is writing about. The book is valuable not onlyfrom an energy economics perspective but also because it gives acomprehensive overview of the Chinese energy system and itseconomic policies."
