With the rapid development of economy，China’s energy consumption has experienced from ‘self-supply’ to ‘global-supply’，which is due to the increase of the energy consumption. The structure and the efficiency of energy consumption are improving. However，there are still problems to be solved，such as the uncoordinated spatial distribution，increasing carbon emission and low output efficiency and so on. In the future，quantity-control from the source，efficiency-oriented use style，and overall consideration planning could be the way to the sustainable energy development in China.
