Abstract

China’s basic legislation and policy framework on energy conservation and energy efficiency consists of four basic slip laws, scores of administrative rules and regulations, and several basic national plans. This framework is the foundation of energy conservation. The basic systems included in China’s legislation and policies are: the energy conservation target responsibility and evaluation system, energy conservation of key energy-consuming entities, the energy conservation standards system and the energy efficiency label system. These play important roles in energy conservation and energy efficiency improvement. Though China has made some progress, there remain three obstacles. First, the energy law system is not sound and the administrative management system is unreasonable. Second, the various differences in legislation pertaining to energy conservation and climate change make them difficult to integrate. Third, there exist many challenges in the enforcement of energy conservation and energy efficiency systems, issues that need to be solved so as to achieve the goal of energy conservation and energy efficiency improvement.
