Energy constraints and the open economic strategy in China's modernization
The People's Republic of China is in the midst of transition - opening its doors to the outside world and reorienting its policies toward upgrading the standards of living of its people. The changes are extensive and have profound implications for all sectors, including energy. The major implications are that China will be expanding its exports substantially and increasing production and marketing of consumer goods, especially from light industries. It will be looking to the rest of the world for markets and for technical expertise. Teh country has a long history of using resources other than crude oil for energy. Sun, wind, biomass, and water power are used extensively throughout the country. Currently, however, energy is being consumed inefficiently. The available resources and some programs to use them effectively are presented in this paper
