This paper constructs an energy investment risk index system and risk identification model based on Complex Network Theory and empirically analyzes the risk evolution characteristics,trends and spatio-temporal transmission path of the overseas investment in China's energy industry through the data of 103 countries from 2010 to 2019.Key findings include:(1)Indicators such as control of corruption,government effectiveness,regulatory quality,rule of law,political stability and absence of violence/terror-ism are the key risk points of China's energy industry overseas investments;(2)The transmissibility of China's energy OFDI continues to increase over the past ten years.Examining individual country invest-ment risks reveals Indonesia,Turkey and Brazil showcase internally complex investment risk environ-ments.(3)Based on the minimum spanning tree,investment risks in Europe and Central Asia,Middle East and North Africa and sub-Saharan Africa have shorter transmission paths,increasingly close links and accelerated risk accumulation.
