China is making significant progress in developing and reforming its energy sector.
On March 14 2017 the Australia-China Relations Institute (ACRI)’s new Principal Research Fellow Dr Xunpeng Shi discussed the complexities of the Chinese energy market and its implications for Australia's growth prospects.
Dr Shi provided an overview of Chinese energy production, consumption and policy reforms, and examined the emerging development of China’s energy sector, particularly the policies and initiatives in coal and natural gas that will have a significant impact on Australia’s trade and economy.
