“…Meanwhile, he stressed that the demand subsystem is the main driver to attain sustainable and secure energy security development for a country. Based on this result, he conducted a study on India's energy demand system to assess the SES [48]. As a summary, since each country has different development modes, a different strategic focus, and different policy objectives at different periods, the energy security index should be adapted to specific countries or regions for different periods.…”

Abstract:Energy security and sustainability are crucial factors for the development of China. The creation of an evaluation theoretical system of the energy has theoretical and practical significance that is important for ensuring the safe and sustainable development of energy security that matches the national development phase and reflects the sustainable development of national energy. Sustainable energy security must not only take into account the security of energy supply-demand in the long-term and short-term, it must also focus on the coordinated development between energy, the environment, and the economy in China. This paper proposes five dimensions of energy security (availability, accessibility, affordability, acceptability, and develop-ability) to construct China's Sustainable Energy Security (CSES) evaluation index model. Based on the model, an empirical study of China's energy security is carried out with data from 2005 to 2015, and dynamic changing trends are analyzed accordingly. The results indicate that availability and develop-ability are the most important weights in China's Sustainable Energy Security index system, where availability shows a general downward trend, and develop-ability presents an inverted U-type trend, with its lowest point in 2011. From 2008 to 2012, China's sustainable energy security had been at risk. Taking the year 2010 as the demarcation, two phases were obtained: before and after 2010, during which the level of China's sustainable energy security first dropped, and then rose. However, compared with 2005, CSES level decreased by 28% in 2015 due to the decline of availability and accessibility. During 2005-2015, China's energy security system had relative high scores in acceptability and develop-ability, while the sustained downward trend of availability is in need of more regulation.

“…From a more specific and comparative perspective, many studies have been conducted at regional and national levels [13,[24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. Le et al [24] reported the different levels of energy insecurity in Asia, focusing on 12 variables such as CO 2 emissions, CO 2 intensity, energy imports, energy intensity, energy use, fossil fuel energy consumption, and renewable energy consumption.…”

Ensuring energy supply security has become one of the most important purposes for many countries. To make the strategies for ensuring the energy supply security of a country, it is essential to quantitatively assess the security. This paper aims to present a methodology to evaluate the energy supply security of a country by using different indices of energy dependence and energy diversity, which have been raised as two main paradigms of energy supply security. This study also proposes two indices reflecting the correlation between a country’s energy diversity and energy import dependence to evaluate its energy supply security based on easily accessible data. The presented methodology and indices were applied to the evaluation of the primary energy supply security of Korea from 1991 to 2018. The results show that a country highly dependent on energy imports is not evaluated as secure enough in terms of energy supply even if it obtains higher energy diversity. This finding supports the importance of the correlation of energy dependence and energy diversity of a country to ensure its energy supply security. This approach could be further adapted to other countries and help them to make their energy policy and strategies.

“…availability, stability, affordability, efficiency, and environmental impact, WEC (2010) proposed 46 indicators. Augutis's ideas on a number of indicators based on technical, economic, and socio-political systems and includes 38 indicators ( Augutis et al, 2012 ; Narula et al (2017) measured energy security through 22 indicators related to availability, acceptability, affordability, and efficiency dimensions. Martchamadol & Kumar (2012) works greatly focuses upon the economic aspect of energy security which had proposed 19 indicators.…”

In the international arena, it is often the case that in countries which largely depend on foreign resources, energy security, and its key components i.e. security of energy supply, environment, technology, geopolitical and economic factors, is a subject of concern. However, due to the abundance of fossil fuel resources in resource-rich exporting nations, there is a lack of understanding of the risks around energy security and accordingly often a policy vacuum. Conceptualising energy security from different geopolitical vantage points will allow future concerns around energy supply security, climate change, and regional economic crises to be evaluated. By using policy documents and developing a time series approach and normalized z-scores for a range of comparable metrics this article compares the energy security performance in six Caspian Sea countries individually and collectively. The article results show that Azerbaijan, Iran, Kazakhstan made significant progress in energy security since 1990, while energy security indicators in Russia, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan regressed. Iran has a leading position in energy security performance, while Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan have the lowest level of the energy security indicators compare to other region countries. This article both contributes a replicable definition of energy security that can be undertaken for other global regions, and begins to incorporate diversification and renewables development to enhance domestic energy security assessment.
