My Op-ed in the South China Morning Post of 29 November 2014 examines China's complex energy dynamics encompassing energy security, economic re-structuring and ecological sustainability.
Download Can China really reach its ambitious goals for clean energy
This tallies with my recent research note on the implications of China's recent energy deals with Russia and China's tectonic shifts from oil to gas and renewales as the country is pushing ahead to create a greener and more sustainable economy.
Indeed, these shifts are not confined to China. They are part of a global energy revolution that is likley to see the beginning of the end of The Age of Oil. Collapsing oil prices and OPEC's apparent inability or unwillingness to reverse oil price decline are probable canaries in the coalmine.
