The Ultimate Guide To China's Voracious Energy Use

The Ultimate Guide To China's Voracious Energy Use

China coal
China already accounts for 21 percent of global energy use driven by its industrial economy and fast growing middle class.
Despite the country's heavy investment in renewable energy, the sheer abundance of coal makes it the biggest source of energy for the country.
But with per capita energy use still pretty low, China's energy consumption is expected to grow. We drew on a Goldman Sachs report by Abby Joseph Cohen and Rachel Siu to create the ultimate guide to Chinese energy use and where it's headed.
Much thanks to Cohen, Siu, and Goldman for permission run their charts.http://www.businessinsider.com/china-energy-use-2012-8?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+clusterstock+%28ClusterStock%29&utm_content=Google+Reader
