Description:

Following decades of breakneck economic growth, China’s energy needs have expanded rapidly. China is the world’s largest consumer of energy, the largest producer and consumer of coal, and the largest emitter of carbon dioxide. In recent years, China has invested heavily in renewable energy and emerged as a global leader in hydroelectric, wind and solar energy. Despite Beijing’s effort to expand the use of non-fossil fuels, China’s energy import dependence is expected to continue for decades to come. In this episode, we welcome Professor Zha Daojiong as we discuss the risks involved with China’s foreign energy dependence and the ways in which Beijing is attempting to mitigate them.
