Influences of new socialist countryside construction on the energy strategy of china and the countermeasures

The fast-growing Chinese economy will inevitably need more and more energy. This not only makes China's energy shortage situation severer, but also causes more and more worries from the countries all over the world, especially those developed countries. In this paper, China's energy state is analyzed and the influences of promoting new socialist countryside construction on China's energy source problem and its energy strategy making are discussed. It is stressed in this paper that in drawing the national energy development plan, it is of vital importance to take the impacts of new socialist countryside construction on energy production, supply and consumption into consideration. Traditional mineral energy supply that has been used for towns and cities should not be simply copied to solve the energy problem in countryside construction. The best choice for combating the huge energy increase resulted from speeding up the countryside construction is promoting utilization of biomass and solar energy and various advanced energy technologies. To make the utilization of biomass and solar energy and various advanced energy technologies in countryside, the government should give necessary technical and financial supports.
