China - Energy imports
Energy imports, net (% of energy use)
Energy imports, net (% of energy use) in China was 15.02 as of 2014. Its highest value over the past 43 years was 15.02 in 2014, while its lowest value was -7.54 in 1985.
Definition: Net energy imports are estimated as energy use less production, both measured in oil equivalents. A negative value indicates that the country is a net exporter. Energy use refers to use of primary energy before transformation to other end-use fuels, which is equal to indigenous production plus imports and stock changes, minus exports and fuels supplied to ships and aircraft engaged in international transport.
