China’s energy policy exerts a profound influence on the global economy and the environment. The forum will explore how China - the world's biggest energy producer and consumer, and largest generator of greenhouse gas emissions - can reach its economic, environmental and energy goals. What are the environmental and energy implications of China's new plans for economic rebalancing and societal change? A panel discussion will explore what these developments mean for global energy markets, climate change goals and geopolitics.

China Energy 2020 is organized in cooperation with the China Energy Fund Committee and the Columbia SIPA Center on Global Energy Policy
