COMPARISON AND ANALYSIS OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND CO2 EMISSIONS OF CHINA AND ASEAN

摘要

With the fast development of the economics, the increasing consumption and demand of energy is challenging the energy supply and energy safety of China. At the same time, the energy safety is also one of the most critical issues for the integration process of Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). This paper is tending to calculate and analyze the relation between energy consumption and carbon emission intensity for China, ASEAN and developed countries. Based on the analysis and calculations, this paper is trying to state the necessarity and importance of the further collaboration on energy between China and ASEAN. The energy consumptions and carbon emissions will be estimated for China and ASEAN for the near and long future. Based on the analysis and calculation, technical and policy suggestions have been recommended for the China government and ASEAN governments on the approaches of collaboration and to make contributions to reduce the energy consumption and carbon emission.
