Energy Issues in China
World primary energy consumption by fuel in 2005~2010, in million toe
World primary energy consumption since 1965, according to BP-2011
World coal consumption since 1965, according to BP-2011
World oil consumption since 1965, according to BP-2011
World gas consumption since 1965, according to BP-2011
World hydro-power supply since 1999, according to BP-2011
World nuclear power consumption since 1965, according to BP 2011
World solar energy consumption since 1996, according to BP-2011

Energy consumption structure in 2010 nes oil Million ton equivalent --- Based on BP world energy statistics 2011 China burns coal more than 3 times than that by US and more than 6 times than that by India.
Current energy situation of China Proved reserves: • Fossil fuel – Coal in 2006, proved reserve 1034. 5 billion tonnes, 13% of the world, 3 rd place. – Proved reserves of oil and gas are relatively limited. – Some unconventional fossil energies including oil shale and coal seam gases • Renewable energy resources – Hydro power: theoretical reserves were equal to 6, 190 billion kwh, economically exploitable annual power output was 1, 760 billion kwh, equivalent to 12% of the global, 1 st place
Low per-capita average of energy resources • The per-capita averages of both coal and hydropower resources are 1/2 of the global average; • The per-capita average of both oil and natural gas resources is only about 1/15 of the global average; • The per-capita average of arable land is less than 30% of the global average, which has hindered the development of biomass energy.
A number of “Resource Exhausted” cities • Criterion: – Accumulated production has reached 70% or more of the proved reserve originally found, or – to last 5 years or less with the current technologies; • Two lists were announced in 2008 and 2009, including coal mines, oil fields, non-ferrous mines, and wood-industry regions; • 44 out of 114 “Resource Cities” are now on the “exhausted” list.
Sectoral energy consumption of China
China energy consumption structure change: Oil consumption is increasing quickly, however, coal consumption increases no less …

White Paper: “Situation and Policy of China’s Energy”, Dec 2007 • Current situation – Energy production and consumption • Energy structure • Energy consumption per unit GDP • Energy consumption per capita – Comparison with other countries • Energy production and consumption, and economic development • Efforts of energy saving
• Energy supply capability has been remarkably enhanced. • In 2006, the output of primary energy equaled 2. 21 billion tons of standard coal, ranking second in the world. – Raw coal accounted for 2. 37 billion tons, ranking the first place in the world. Built a number of extra-large coalmines. – Daqing, Shengli, Liaohe, Tarim and the large oilfields have been successively built, and the output of crude oil has increased steadily, ranking China the world's fifth-largest (? ) oil producer in 2006, with 185 million tons in that year. – The output of natural gas ballooned from 14. 3 billion cu m in 1980 to 58. 6 billion cu m in 2006. – The proportion of commercial renewable energy in the structure of primary energy keeps rising. – The electricity sector also reported speedy growth in 2006. The installed capacity reached 622 million kw, and the amount of power generated was 2, 870 billion kwh, both ranking second in the world. • A comprehensive energy transportation system has been developed quickly, with the transport capacity notably improved. – Special railways transporting coal from the west to the east and relevant coal ports, and – pipelines transporting oil from the north to the south and conveying natural gas from the west to the east have all been built. – Now, the power generated in the west can be carried to the east, and the regional power grids have all been connected up.
Uneven distribution of energy – China's energy resources are scattered widely across the country, but the distribution is uneven: • Coal is found mainly in the north and the northwest, • hydropower in the southwest, and • oil and natural gas in the eastern, central and western regions and along the coast. – But, the consumers of energy resources are mainly in the southeast coastal areas, where the economy is the most developed, such that fundamentally, China's energy flow: • large-scale transportation over long distances of coal and oil from the north to the south, • and transmission of natural gas and electricity from the west to the east. • (Southern water to north), northen coal/oil to south, western gas/electricity to east…
Exploitation difficulties: • Coal, poor mining conditions, minor portion can apply opencast working • Oil and gas fields with complicated geological conditions, requiring advanced exploitation techniques • Hydro resources are located southwest mountainous areas, far from economic centers. • Low economy of non-conventional energy resources
“Resource Exhausted” cities • Criterion: – Accumulated production has reached 70% or more of the proved reserve originally found, or – to last 5 years or less with the current technologies • Two lists were announced in 2008 and 2009, including coal mines, oil fields, non-ferrous mines, and woodindustry regions • 44 out of 114 “Resource Cities” are now on the “exhausted” list
Coal mines
Yu Men Oil and gas fields
Challenges for a stable, economic, clean and safe energy supply system • Resource limitation, low energy efficiency – Lack of major high quality energy resources, supply limitation, uneven distribution; – Development mode, improper energy structure, backward equipment and management, so as high energy consumption and consumption strength • Coal as the main energy, environmental pressure – Coal as the main fuel will last for a long period. – Backward coal production and consumption, with environmental pressures: main source of air pollution and GHGs – With the rapid increment of vehicle numbers, car emission induced air pollution will become severe. • Imperfect market system, emergency management capacity – Energy marketing system, pricing mechanism, should be consistent with resource limitation, supply shortage, and environmental cost. – Energy exploitation, supervision system – Safety in mining, especially coal mining. Electric grid not reasonable, oil storage, and emergency response system
Achievements in energy saving • Achievements – 1980-2005, energy consumption increased by 5. 4% annual average, GDP increased 9. 8% per year, so as the elasticity coefficient 0. 55; – Energy consumption strength decreased from 3. 98 ton (coal) per 104 RMB in 1980 to 1. 42 ton (coal) per 104 RMB in 2005, 64. 3% less; – Annual energy saving rate over 4%; – Combined efficiency of energy processing, conversion, storage, and end-use raised from 25% in 1980 o 33% of 2006; – The gap comparing with advanced countries is getting smaller of energy strength in energy-consuming products;
Energy strength per unit GDP has been reduced by 60% in the last 20 years, but still 3. 1 times as the world average, 9 times as that of Japan and 4. 3 times of OESD
