Construction of China's Energy Security System in the New Era
As a majorglobal energy consumer and importer,China is confronted with considerable challenges associated with the intricate patterns and risks inherent to international energy markets.In particular,the complex interweaving and superposition of multidimensional risks have emerged as a significant challenge to China's energy security.We identify a significant shift in the global energy security landscape,marked by the emergence of novel risks that have become central to the evolving global energy pattern.The concept of energy security is transforming into a more systematic,complex,and networked framework.In order to effectively address the multifaceted risks confronting China's energy security,a redefined energy security concept is essential.This new concept should be grounded in a global risk perspective while being anchored at the national level of energy governance.This calls for the reinforcement of the interconnectivity between the domestic and international energy markets and resources,with the objective of establishing a self-reliant energy security governance system.We put forth a four-dimensional governing framework that includes an overarching security concept,the identification of two-dimensional risks,the provision of three types of security guarantees,and the implementation of a policy evaluation system.The overarching security concept is designed to ensure comprehensive security of China's energy system,thereby guaranteeing a stable and reliable energy supply to meet future demands.The two-dimensional risks highlight the necessity to be vigilant about the influence of international imported risks on energy security,as well as the impact of structural issues in energy supply in the context of domestic transformations.Meanwhile,it is also crucial to safeguard against traditional risks such as geopolitical conflicts and emerging forms of climate-related disruptions.The three categories of security encompass energy market stability,energy production and supply security,and energy equity and justice.A policy assessment system should integrate these multidimensional risks into a unified policy assessment systems under a risk coupling mechanism.
