National Energy Bureau: "Club of developed countries" on China's energy consumption and carbon emissions in the higher estimates for "China's total oil consumption over the United States as the world's largest energy consumer" news, the National Energy Bureau Integrated Division director Zhou Xian yesterday's "first half of the energy economic Situation press conference" directly denied: " The IEA's assertion that China has overtaken the US as the world's largest energy consumer is inaccurate. "The IEA has 120 million tons," the IEA said 19th that China's energy consumption of 2.252 billion tonnes of oil equivalent in 2009 was about 4% higher than the US, making it the world's largest energy consumer. "This data is available for reference, but we don't think it is credible," Zhou Xian responded. Zhou Anhi said the data were clearly inconsistent with data from the 2009 Statistical Bulletin of the National Bureau of Statistics in China. Yangcheng Evening News reporter to check the statistics published in February this year, China's 2009 total energy consumption amounted to 3.1 billion tons Tce, equivalent to 2.132 billion tons of oil equivalent. In other words, the gap between the two data is just 120 million tonnes of oil; According to Chinese data, the US still has a meager advantage ——— 38 million tons of "keep" the number one energy consumer. The International Energy Agency, a "rich Country Club", has a higher estimate of China's energy consumption and carbon emissions. "Zhou Xian said, two days ago, the IEA released its energy technology Outlook to China, which also estimates that China's energy consumption data and carbon dioxide emissions are higher," I guess they don't know much about China, and they generally reflect that the IEA may have little knowledge of China's energy development situation in recent years, In particular, some new measures are not known. Zhou Xian admits: "In terms of new energy development, we have come to the front of the United States." We now have four first, hydropower installed in the world's first, the use of solar water heaters in the world's first, nuclear power in the global scale of the world's first, wind power installed growth in the world's first. Over the years, as a developing country, we can unswervingly push for energy conservation and emission reduction, and make a solemn commitment to not compete with other countries in the world, and foreign media and foreign governments should give full attention and affirmation.
