In 2020, energy consumption in China amounted to approximately 4.98 billion tons standard coal equivalent (SCE). This figure includes the consumption of coal, oil, natural gas and electricity, but excludes biomass and solar energy.
Energy consumption in China from 2010 to 2020
(in billion tons standard coal equivalent)
Note: The coefficient for conversion of electric power into SCE (standard coal equivalent) is calculated on the basis of the data on average coal consumption in generating electric power in the same year.
