Abstract
According to the recently published papers, the energy situation in China is presented. The following points must be noticed.1) Most of the sectoral energy intensities based on physical output in China are lower than those in India. However, the low commodity prices in China and ex-change rate make GDP smaller. This is one of the reasons why the energy in-tensity based on GDP in China is relatively high.2) The energy conservation in China during the 80's was remarkable: more than 20% of energy was saved. Moreover, the general recognition of the significance of energy conservation and the establishment of an administrative network for it are important.3) In the long-term energy supply plan, the role of energy conservation is signifi-cant: energy intensity per GDP must be cut to one-fifth its present value to meet the explosively increasing energy demands in the next few decades.
