The authors first derive a set of seven hypotheses related to Chinese energy security drawn from a review of the recent academic literature. We then explain each of these seven hypotheses, relating to (1) security of energy supply, (2) geopolitics, (3) climate change, (4) decentralization, (5) energy efficiency, (6) research and innovation of new energy technologies, and (7) self sufficiency and trade. Lastly, the article tests these hypotheses through a survey distributed in English and Mandarin completed by 312 Chinese participants. The conclusion presents insights for policymakers and energy scholars. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd. | Source Title: | Applied Energy | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/128431 | ISSN: | 03062619 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.apenergy.2010.12.016 |
