Energy Situation of China in Global Background

The real hardship facing to Chinese energy will be appeared after 2020. At that time, the consumption of liquid fuels will be greatly demanded. If China continues to be developed in an existing mode, it will produce a significant impact on the structure of the world oil market. To avoid such conflicts, we have to seriously deal with, and study on such strategic problems as the coal-based liquid fuel from now on. This paper is on the base of global vision, and takes a long-term view and combines international politics theories with energy technologic methods to explain that the multi-poles world structure, the balanced relationship among powerful countries and the realism of region cooperation will benefit the long-term development of energy industry. It also considers that the global energy demand increase steadily in view of its entirely. Therefore, the resources will not become a limiting element for energy supplies. And it emphasizes that the increase of the consumption in the transportation field is also a motivation and a source for energy increase, not only for developed countries, but also for developing countries. It concludes that the future Chinese energy problem will lie in the supply of liquid fuels directly and coal-based liquid fuels may become the new fuel to likely replace oil on a large scale.
