Energy production and climate change
Climate change and energy production have a close relationship, as climate change affects energy production and energy production contributes to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions. The document discusses how Pakistan's energy sector is vulnerable to climate change impacts like decreased hydropower generation due to less water availability. It recommends that Pakistan increase use of renewable energy sources like solar and wind, adopt newer less-emitting technologies, and improve energy efficiency to mitigate climate change impacts on its energy sector.
Global warming
Global warming is caused by greenhouse gas emissions that trap heat in the atmosphere. The main causes are pollution from vehicles, electricity production, and industry, as well as deforestation. This leads to effects like more frequent heat waves, rising sea levels, health impacts, and destruction of coral reefs. Solutions include using energy efficient products, reducing deforestation and emissions, and shifting to public transportation. International agreements like the Kyoto Protocol have aimed to reduce greenhouse gases but a new Copenhagen Protocol may be needed.

REFRAMING CLIMATE JUSTICE FOR DEVELOPMENT: SIX PRINCIPLES FOR SUPPORTING INCLUSIVE AND EQUITABLE ENERGY TRANSITIONS IN LOW-EMITTING ENERGY-POOR AFRICAN COUNTRIES
By Mimi Alemayehou, Katie Auth, Murefu Barasa, Morgan Bazilian, Brad Handler, Uzo Iweala, Todd Moss, Rose Mutiso, Zainab Usman
Advancing inclusive and equitable energy transitions is one of this century’s most vital global challenges, and one in which development finance will play a crucial role. References to justice and equity are widespread in international climate policy, and are increasingly being used by development organizations to guide their own work, including support for energy transitions.
But prevailing definitions of climate justice rarely fully capture the priorities, challenges and perspectives of low-emitting energy-poor countries, the vast majority of which are in sub-Saharan Africa. When applied to development policy, this gap risks prioritizing near-term emissions reductions over broader support for economic development and energy transformation, with comparatively little climate benefit. This could severely hinder poverty alleviation, development, and climate resilience — the very opposite of justice. We need energy transitions that are truly ‘just and inclusive.’ What does this mean for development funders and financiers, and how should it drive their approach to supporting energy transitions in the lowest-income countries? Lesson 5 The Increasing Global Demand For Energy
The document discusses the increasing global demand for energy due to population growth, rising wealth, and advancing technology. As populations grow and people have more money, they consume more consumer goods and energy-using products. This rising energy consumption has social, economic, and environmental impacts. Burning fossil fuels for energy releases greenhouse gases and pollutants, contributing to issues like global warming, acid rain, and habitat destruction. Meeting growing energy needs will require more power plants and infrastructure, which create jobs but also have negative land use and pollution effects.

Huella Ecológica y Límites Biosféricos
This document discusses ecological footprints and biospheric limits. It begins by looking at energy production and depletion of resources like coal, oil and natural gas. Territories that produce and extract more energy have higher depletion rates. The ecological footprint is introduced as a measure of the area needed to support a population's lifestyle and consumption, including pollution. The US has the largest footprint per person at almost 5 times the world average. Carbon dioxide emissions are also examined, with North America responsible for 28% of the total in 2000. The document concludes by noting the fight by ExxonMobil against addressing climate change.
GEOGRAPHY IGCSE: ENVIRONMENT -FOSSIL FUELS AND GREENHOUSE GASES
Burning fossil fuels releases carbon emissions, especially carbon dioxide, into the atmosphere. While these gases have always been present, their concentration is increasing as fossil fuel usage rises. This buildup of greenhouse gases is causing global warming by trapping heat in the atmosphere in a process called the greenhouse effect. Some of the impacts of global warming could include rising sea levels from melting ice caps and glaciers which would threaten coastal areas, as well as changes in weather patterns leading to more extreme events like droughts and hurricanes. There is debate around both the causes and speed of global warming, but the implications are serious regardless.
Energy crisis
Energy crisis has been a recurring problem due to increasing demand and limited fossil fuel reserves. The 1973 and 1979 oil crises showed the world's dependence on oil from unstable regions. While renewable sources like solar and wind show promise, they currently only provide a small fraction of energy needs. Nuclear power provides temporary relief but uranium reserves will last less than 15 years if used widely. Coal reserves will last 100-215 years at current consumption rates but is also limited and dirty. No single replacement exists and transition will be difficult, requiring a mix of solutions and reduced consumption through efficiency. Public understanding of the science and anticipated challenges is crucial to navigating this global issue.
The imperative of third energy revolution in the world
The International Energy Agency (IEA) warned that "the world is moving for an unsustainable energy future" if governments do not adopt "urgent measures" to optimize the resources available [See the article AIE: mundo se encaminha para futuro energético insustentável (IEA: World is moving towards unsustainable energy future), published on website <http: />]. To optimize the energy resources available on the planet, we must begin the third energy revolution that should result in the implementation of a sustainable energy system on a global scale. In a sustainable energy system, the world oil production should be reduced by half and coal 90%, while renewable energy sources (solar, wind, biomass, tidal, geothermal, hydrogen, etc.) should grow nearly 4 times by 2030. In 2030, renewable energy should be about 70% of the total energy of the planet.
The Global Energy Challenges on Role Of Nuclear Energy and Climate Change
The document summarizes the objectives and key topics discussed at the 5th International Conference on Mechanical Engineering and Renewable Energy (ICMERE-2019). The conference focused on studying current global energy consumption and the role of different energy sources like fossil fuels, nuclear power, and renewables. It discussed challenges like meeting increasing demand through low-cost and low-carbon sources. Presentations analyzed energy resources, generation and consumption trends over time for different fuels. The impact of various energy sources on climate change and their economic costs were also evaluated. The conference emphasized the need for sustainable energy solutions to address future challenges.
Natural captia & resourcesl
Natural capital refers to natural resources that can be exploited to produce goods and services that have economic value. It includes renewable resources like forests and freshwater as well as non-renewable resources like fossil fuels. Natural capital provides ecosystem services like climate stabilization and soil fertility. However, globally natural capital is being depleted through overexploitation and environmental degradation. There are three types of natural capital: renewable resources which can regenerate, like forests; non-renewable resources which cannot regenerate within human timescales, like fossil fuels; and replenishable resources which are replenished from other natural sources, like groundwater.
A2 Geography - Environmental management
This document discusses sustainable energy supplies and trends in energy consumption. It notes that most global energy currently comes from non-renewable resources like coal, oil, and natural gas. These resources have disadvantages like air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and finite supplies. The document also discusses renewable energy sources like hydroelectric, wind, and solar power. It examines how factors like population, GDP, policies, and geography influence energy demand in different countries. High-income countries tend to rely more on oil and natural gas, while many low-income countries rely heavily on biomass. The document analyzes energy trends in major countries and regions. It provides examples of China's large-scale efforts to expand renewable energy and balance economic growth with environmental
Api en hydraulic fracturing ppt - ars1
Hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking, is a process that has been used safely for over 60 years to extract oil and natural gas from shale formations by creating fractures in the rock. It allows access to large reserves that can provide energy for decades and has contributed to economic growth through job creation and lower energy costs. While fracking occurs thousands of feet below water sources, regulations ensure protection of groundwater through redundant casing and primarily using water in the fracking process. Increased natural gas from fracking has also helped reduce US carbon emissions.
H42023442
This document summarizes a research article about energy resources. The article provides a comprehensive study of both renewable and non-renewable energy resources. It discusses key non-renewable resources like coal, natural gas, petroleum, and uranium. It also examines renewable energy sources such as biomass, geothermal, wind, and solar. For each resource, the document outlines where it comes from, how it is used, and statistics about production and consumption on a global scale. It also compares renewable to non-renewable resources and analyzes important factors to consider for different power generation methods.
Wer 2013 1_coal
Coal remains a central part of the global energy system, accounting for around 40% of global electricity production. It is expected to replace oil as the world's largest source of primary energy in the coming years. Coal reserves are estimated at 869 billion tonnes globally, which at current production rates should last around 115 years. China is the largest coal producer, consumer, and importer. Developing countries are expected to drive a 50% increase in global coal use by 2030 to meet growing energy demand and support development goals like improving electrification rates and reducing energy poverty. Technologies like high-efficiency plants and carbon capture and storage can help reduce the environmental impacts of increased coal use.
Peak Coal in China-A GIS and Political Economy Aspect to China's Coal Policy
The document discusses China's heavy reliance on coal, which has powered its economic growth but also caused severe environmental problems. China currently consumes half of the world's coal and coal accounts for about two-thirds of its energy mix. In response to worsening air pollution, the government has recently implemented measures to reduce coal consumption, including capping it by 2020. This has raised hopes that China may reach "peak coal" sooner than expected, potentially improving the country's air quality and reducing its carbon emissions.
Finamore Wesleyan Presentation November 2015 LinkedIn
This document summarizes a briefing given by Barbara Finamore on China's climate commitments and actions. It notes that China is a key player in climate protection due to its large CO2 emissions. While China's heavy industry and rapid urbanization have driven its emissions growth, it is now taking action due to air pollution and environmental problems. In 2014, China committed to capping its carbon emissions by 2030 and increasing renewable energy. It has also committed to peaking emissions around 2030, reducing carbon intensity, and increasing its forest stock and renewable energy share. China is increasingly investing in renewable energy like wind and solar and has become a global leader in these areas. It is working to improve its emissions monitoring and supports international cooperation on
Energy policy in china by Sayef Amin +8801924122222
China is the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases and consumer of coal. Coal supplies around 70% of China's energy needs and its coal consumption has increased dramatically in recent years. China has taken steps to address its carbon emissions through plans like increasing renewable energy and implementing more stringent carbon intensity reduction targets. It also has vast shale gas reserves that it aims to develop to replace coal and reduce emissions. However, China still faces challenges in balancing energy demand with sustainable supply and reducing its heavy reliance on coal.

China is increasingly investing in renewable energy like wind and solar and has become a global leader in these areas. It is working to improve its emissions monitoring and supports international cooperation on
Energy policy in china by Sayef Amin +8801924122222
China is the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases and consumer of coal. Coal supplies around 70% of China's energy needs and its coal consumption has increased dramatically in recent years. China has taken steps to address its carbon emissions through plans like increasing renewable energy and implementing more stringent carbon intensity reduction targets. It also has vast shale gas reserves that it aims to develop to replace coal and reduce emissions. However, China still faces challenges in balancing energy demand with sustainable supply and reducing its heavy reliance on coal.

WEO 2017: China
Four major shifts are occurring in global energy: 1) the US is becoming the top oil and gas producer, 2) solar PV is becoming the lowest-cost new electricity source in many countries, 3) China is prioritizing environmental goals like improving air quality, and 4) electrification is growing due to technologies like EVs, cooling, and digitization. China's policies to improve air quality will significantly reduce coal use and shift its energy mix while also slowing energy demand growth. China is also becoming a leader in clean energy technologies and will play a larger role in global gas markets.
Energy Efficiency
Today’s renewable energy sources are very important for lots of countries. Therefore, many countries start to change and implement their policies. Especially, in Turkey and Europe the importance of solar and wind energies influence the energy policies.

Mick Buffier - World Coal Association
The document discusses the continued importance of coal in meeting growing global energy demand, especially in developing Asian countries. It argues that coal will remain a major part of the global energy mix due to its low costs compared to alternatives. New cleaner coal technologies can significantly reduce emissions while coal is used to power economic growth and address energy poverty. The document calls for support to deploy high-efficiency, low-emissions coal technologies in order to lower emissions and ensure reliable, affordable energy access.
Energy (Coal Reserves of Pakistan)
Pakistan faces a severe energy crisis, with electricity outages of up to 18 hours per day. While coal is an abundant domestic energy source, it has not been developed for power generation in decades. The discovery of large coal reserves offers potential to generate over 100,000 MW of electricity in the next 30 years. However, reliable coal supplies are needed for significant growth in coal power. Currently, thermal power from oil, gas and coal makes up 70% of Pakistan's electricity capacity. Residential users account for the majority of electricity consumption.
Coal Market Outlook
World Coal market outlook according to 'World Energy Outlook' magazine 2015 edition.
Created for presentation in MSc Energy Engineering course on coal market.
Coal market outlook
- Coal currently produces 62% of the world's electricity and is the most abundant fossil fuel, with enough reserves to last 200 years. However, coal also has significant disadvantages, including dangerous mining practices, major carbon emissions contributing to climate change, and air pollution from transporting and burning coal.
- The top five countries by coal reserves are the United States, Russia, China, Australia, and India. Under the New Policies Scenario, global coal demand is projected to grow slowly by 0.4% per year on average to 2040 due to policies supporting renewable energy. China's coal imports are expected to decline over 50% by 2040 as its demand shifts.
Coal an energy resource
Coal is an important and cheap energy resource for Pakistan. Coal provides economic benefit as compared to Oil.
Pakistan owns huge reserves of coal.

Energy conservation in india
Energy conservation in India faces challenges in bridging the large gap between energy supply and demand. While India has significantly increased installed power capacity since independence, demand continues to outpace supply, resulting in shortages. Conservation can help address this issue by reducing consumption and acting as a new source of energy. Key areas for conservation include improving power factor in industries, optimizing plant load factors, insulating furnaces and vessels, and promoting renewable sources like solar and wind power. However, changing energy usage behaviors and adopting new technologies also presents challenges.

07. DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - REICHSTAG FIRE
On February 27, 1933, the German parliament (Reichstag) building burned down. The Nazi leadership and its coalition partners used the fire to claim that Communists were planning a violent uprising. They claimed that emergency legislation was needed to prevent this. The resulting act, commonly known as the Reichstag Fire Decree, abolished a number of constitutional protections and paved the way for Nazi dictatorship.
05. DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - HITLER CONSOLIDATING POWER 1933-34.PPTX
05. DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - HITLER CONSOLIDATING POWER 1933-34.PPTX
Following Hitler’s appointment as chancellor the Nazis were finally in a position of power.
However, this power was limited, as the Nazis were just one party in a three party coalition government, under President Hindenburg.
This topic will explore how the Nazis managed to eliminate their opposition and consolidate ultimate power over Germany, whilst maintaining an illusion of democracy.
It will first explore this topic in chronological order, from the Reichstag Fire through to the death of President Hindenburg, and then explore it thematically in the last section. On the 31 January 1933, Hitler, conscious of his lack of a majority in the Reichstag, immediately called for new elections to try and strengthen his position. The Nazis aimed to increase their share of the vote so that they would have a majority in the Reichstag. This would allow them to rule unopposed and unhindered by coalition governments.
Over the next two months, they launched themselves into an intense election campaign.
On 27 February 1933, as the campaign moved into its final, frantic days, the Reichstag, the German Parliament building, was set on fire and burnt down. An atmosphere of panic and terror followed the event.
This continued when a young Dutch communist, Van der Lubbe was arrested for the crime.
The Nazi Party used the atmosphere of panic to their advantage, encouraging anti-communism. Göring declared that the communists had planned a national uprising to overthrow the Weimar Republic. This hysteria helped to turn the public against the communists, one of the Nazis main opponents, and 4000 people were imprisoned.
The day after the fire, Hindenburg signed the Emergency Decree for the Protection of the German People. On the 28 February 1933, President Hindenburg signed the Emergency Decree for the Protection of the German People. This decree suspended the democratic aspects of the Weimar Republic and declared a state of emergency.
This decree gave the Nazis a legal basis for the persecution and oppression of any opponents, who were be framed as traitors to the republic. People could be imprisoned for any or no reason.
The decree also removed basic personal freedoms, such as the freedom of speech, the right to own property, and the right to trial before imprisonment.
Through these aspects the Nazis suppressed any opposition to their power, and were able to start the road from democracy to a dictatorship. The atmosphere of uncertainty following the Reichstag Fire secured many voters for the Nazi party.
The SA also ran a violent campaign of terror against any and all opponents of the Nazi regime. Many were terrified of voting of at all, and many turned to voting for the Nazi Party out of fear for their own safety. The elections were neither free or fair.
On the 5 March 1933, the elections took place, with an extremely high turnout of 89%.
The Nazis secured 43.9% of the vote.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - 04. HITLER BECOMING CHANCELLOR 1933
Hitler was not immediately appointed chancellor after the success of the July 1932 elections, despite being leader of the largest party in the Reichstag. It took the economic and political instability (with two more chancellors failing to stabilise the situation) to worsen, and the support of the conservative elite, to convince Hindenburg to appoint Hitler.
Hitler was sworn in as the chancellor of Germany on the 30 January 1933. The Nazis were now in power.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - 03. NAZI'S LITTLE SUCCESS
The document discusses the early success of the Nazi party in Germany. It notes that while the party made progress in organization and membership in its early years after 1919, it had little impact in elections initially. The Nazis received only 6.5% of the vote in their first national election in 1924. Later elections in 1928 saw their support decline further to just 2.6% as the German economy and political situation stabilized under Stresemann. While the Nazis appealed to specific groups frustrated with the Weimar Republic, they remained a small party with less than 30,000 members by 1925.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - 02. NAZI PARTY IDEOLOGY IN 1920
The document provides background information on the origins and early development of the Nazi party in Germany during the 1920s. It describes how the party began as the German Workers' Party led by Anton Drexler before Hitler joined in 1919 and became the leader in 1921. It also outlines some of the key aspects of the Nazi party platform outlined in the 25-point program, including nationalism, anti-Semitism, and a desire for more territory. Finally, it discusses Hitler's failed Munich Putsch coup attempt in 1923 and how he wrote Mein Kampf while in prison.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - 01. FASCISM
1) Post-war instability and economic crisis weakened established political systems in countries like Germany and Italy. 2) A sense of nationalism was used by fascist leaders to promote unity and scapegoat others for the nation's problems. 3) Charismatic leaders like Hitler and Mussolini were able to gain followers by promoting fascism as an alternative to communism and liberal democracy.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 10. THE FALL OF WEIMAR 1930-1933
The document provides background information on the rise of the Nazi party in Germany between 1930-1933. It discusses how Germany's economic dependence on American loans led to the collapse of German industry following the 1929 Wall Street crash. This caused widespread unemployment, with over 6 million people jobless by 1932. As economic conditions deteriorated, support grew for the Nazis as they promised strong leadership and blamed Jews and communists for Germany's problems. The Nazis increased their Reichstag seats in elections in 1933 after Hitler became Chancellor, and he then used emergency powers to crush opposition and establish a one-party Nazi state in Germany.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 09. TABLES AND CARTOONS
The document discusses the Weimar Republic in Germany through tables and cartoons as part of a Cambridge IGCSE depth study on Germany. It provides information on the political and economic challenges faced by the Weimar Republic between 1919-1933 through statistical tables and illustrations. The depth study uses multiple visual elements to summarize key events and issues like inflation, unemployment, and the rise of extremism during this period of German history.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 08. NAZIS IN THE WILDERNESS
The “Lean Years” (also called the "wilderness" years) of Hitler and the Nazi Party in Germany refer to the period between 1924 and 1928 when the Nazi party did not have high levels of support and still suffered from humiliation over the Munich Putsch. Why where these years “lean”?
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 07. STRESEMMAN ERA 1924-1929
Gustav Stresemann was appointed Chancellor of Germany in 1923 during the Weimar Republic period. As Chancellor and later as Foreign Minister, he implemented policies that helped stabilize Germany's economy and improve its international standing. This included establishing a new currency to end hyperinflation, crushing communist uprisings, and pursuing diplomatic agreements like the Locarno Pact to normalize Germany's relations with other European powers. However, the economic and political stability of the Weimar Republic remained fragile.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 06. THE BEER HALL PUTSCH 1923
The Beer Hall Putsch, also known as the Munich Putsch, was a failed coup d'état by Nazi Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP) leader Adolf Hitler, Generalquartiermeister Erich Ludendorff and other Kampfbund leaders in Munich, Bavaria, on 8–9 November 1923, during the Weimar Republic. Approximately two thousand Nazis marched on the Feldherrnhalle, in the city centre, but were confronted by a police cordon, which resulted in the deaths of 16 Nazi Party members and four police officers. Hitler escaped immediate arrest and was spirited off to safety in the countryside. After two days, he was arrested and charged with treason. The putsch brought Hitler to the attention of the German nation for the first time and generated front-page headlines in newspapers around the world. His arrest was followed by a 24-day trial, which was widely publicised and gave him a platform to express his nationalist sentiments to the nation. Hitler was found guilty of treason and sentenced to five years in Landsberg Prison, where he dictated Mein Kampf to fellow prisoners Emil Maurice and Rudolf Hess. On 20 December 1924, having served only nine months, Hitler was released. Once released, Hitler redirected his focus towards obtaining power through legal means rather than by revolution or force, and accordingly changed his tactics, further developing Nazi propaganda.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 05. HYPERINFLATION
Hyperinflation affected the German Papiermark, the currency of the Weimar Republic, between 1921 and 1923, primarily in 1923. It caused considerable internal political instability in the country, the occupation of the Ruhr by France and Belgium, and misery for the general populace.

DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 02. THE NOVEMBER REVOLUTION 1918
The German Revolution or November Revolution was a civil conflict in the German Empire at the end of the First World War that resulted in the replacement of the German federal constitutional monarchy with a democratic parliamentary republic that later became known as the Weimar Republic. The revolutionary period lasted from November 1918 until the adoption of the Weimar Constitution in August 1919. Among the factors leading to the revolution were the extreme burdens suffered by the German population during the four years of war, the economic and psychological impacts of the German Empire's defeat by the Allies, and growing social tensions between the general population and the aristocratic and bourgeois elite.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

CAMBRIDGE GEOGRAPHY A2 REVISION - ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT: THE MANAGEMENT OF ENERGY SUPPLY
- 2. TOPICSUMMARY China overtook the US in total energy usage in 2009. The demand for energy in China continues to increase significantly as the country expands its industrial base. China’s energy policy has evolved over time. As the economy expanded rapidly in the 1980s and 1990s, much emphasis was placed on China’s main energy resource, coal. China was also an exporter of oil until the early 1990s, although it is now a very significant importer.
- 5. TOPICSUMMARY According to Greenpeace 80% of China’s carbon dioxide emissions and 85% of its sulphur dioxide pollution comes from burning coal. In recent years China has tried to take a more balanced approach to energy supply and at the same time reduce its environmental impact. The eleventh Five Year Plan (2006–2010) focused on two major energy- related objectives: a. to reduce energy use per unit of GDP by 20% b. to ensure a more secure supply of energy
- 7. TOPICSUMMARY Because of the dominant position of coal in China’s energy mix, the development of clean coal technology is central to China’s energy policy with regard to fossil fuels. The further development of nuclear and hydropower is another important strand of Chinese policy. Priority has also been given to building up the national oil reserve. Total renewable energy capacity in China reached 226 GW in 2009; 197 GW of this total was hydroelectricity. China’s wind power capacity grew thirty-fold between 2005 and 2009 to become the second largest in the world behind the US. The Three Gorges Dam across the Yangtze River in China is the world’s largest electricity generating plant of any kind.
- 9. ADDITIONALWORK 1. What impact is China’s rapidly rising demand for energy having on the rest of the world? 2. Why is it important for a country like China to have an energy policy?
