Join us today for a live webcast of an Energy Forum conference about the future of China’s role in the energy sector and the global economy.
China will play a major role in shaping long-term global energy trends. Already, China’s growing economy has been a driver of global commodity markets in recent years. Soaring Chinese oil and natural gas demand has become a major feature influencing global energy market trends, and emerging shifts in Chinese energy and economic policy could potentially alter the future geopolitical and economic landscape.
The conference “The Rise of China and Its Energy Implications” investigates these trends and shifts by bringing together senior Chinese and U.S. officials, leading financial and energy analysts, academic scholars, and global oil industry leaders to address the emerging path of China’s energy sector as a transforming energy landscape shapes China’s economic role in relation the United States. Findings from a major Baker Institute energy study will be publicly released at this event. The study includes papers on Chinese energy policy and energy demand trends, Chinese oil and gas investment trends, and energy in the U.S.-China bilateral relationship.
