CGEP: China Energy 2020 Forum Thursday, September 11, 2014 - The Center on #GlobalEnergyPolicy, the #NationalCommittee on #US-#China #Relations, and the #China #EnergyFundCommittee hosted a forum on China Energy 2020, featuring keynote remarks by David Sandalow, Inaugural Fellow, Center on Global Energy Policy and former U.S. Under Secretary of Energy (acting); and Zhang Guobao, former Vice Chairman, National Development and Reform Commission and former Director of the National Energy Administration of China. China Energy 2020 looked at how China--the worlds 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 Chinas new plans for economic rebalancing and societal change?
