In this paper, five different energy of cross price elasticity were calculated, the substitutional relation between different energy sources in China were discussed. The status of natural gas in energy market was analysed. The results show that only LNG take a role of complements to natural gas, while electricity, gasoline, diesel oil and coal have alternative relations with natural gas. Besides,electricity has the strongest ability to substitute natural gas. Conversely, if it is possible for natural gas to replace other energy sources , LNG will be the best substitute and be followed by gasoline,diesel oil,and power. And the natural gas has the weakest ability to substitute coal in China.

The study evaluates changes in the production and consumption of energy from renewable sources in the conditions of the development of circular bioeconomy. The general structure of the energy market was presented and then the importance of bioenergy, other renewable energy sources and energy from waste in the EU energy system was analyzed. Research shows that the current EU policy has brought a significant increase in the use of renewable energy sources in the structure of energy production and consumption in the EU. It was also found that the use of waste in energy production in the EU is low and significantly diversified in individual member states.

Nowadays, in the context of climate change, efficient energy management and increasing the share of renewable energy sources in the energy mix are helping to reduce greenhouse gases. In this research, we present the energy system and its management and the possibilities of its development through the example of an ecovillage. The basic goal of such a community is to be economically, socially, and ecologically sustainable, so the study of energy system of an ecovillage is especially justified. As the goal of this community is sustainability, potential technological and efficiency barriers to the use of renewable energy sources will also become visible. Our sample area is Visnyeszéplak ecovillage, where we examined the energy production and consumption habits and possibilities of the community with the help of interviews, literature, and map databases. By examining the spatial structure of the settlement, we examined the spatial structure of energy management. We formulated development proposals that can make the community’s energy management system more efficient.

The purpose of this article is to review the dynamics of natural gas resources in Africa and evaluate how it can help solve the power challenges of the continent. This article develops from a descriptive analysis and desk review on natural gas and power. The key finding is that despite the increased discovery of natural gas in Africa, it has had minimal impact on power production. This study provides a descriptive overview and is limited to only natural gas. It does not consider how other energy sources can contribute to solving Africa’s power challenges. This article draws the attention of both policymakers and the investment community to the opportunities in the ‘natural gas-power’ value chain and the need to invest in gas infrastructure. An overview of the power challenges and natural gas potential of Africa is provided.

The purpose of this article is to present the changes in the structure of production and consumption of energy from renewable energy sources in Poland and in the European Union. Renewable energy sources account for only about 16% of world energy production. This situation, however, from year to year changes. Prym in the use of energy from renewable sources leads the European Union, which has set itself an ambitious target that by 2020, 20% of the energy extracted from the green renewable energy sources.

Natural gas is one of the most sought-after trade commodities in the energy market, mainly due to exploitation of cleaner and sustainable energy sources. The most common transportation method for natural gas imports is either through designated pipelines in its gaseous state or carried in its liquefied state as Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) by specialized tankers. The analysis and comparison of natural gas import by pipelines and FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit) terminals is presented in this paper. Pipeline import is currently the cheapest and most feasible option, but it requires significant infrastructural investments, which can affect imports in countries where production is far from the delivery, so alternatively vessels and import terminals are necessary to ensure natural gas imports and energy supply stability. This paper analyses the technology and current market outlook of both natural gas import methods.

Abstract The aim of this paper is to discuss the conditions for the modernization of the energy sector in the Netherlands following the discovery of natural gas deposits in the country and a rapidly growing importance of this fuel. Hence the paper presents the essence of the model of transition management in the energy sector. It also shows the nature of changes in the structure of primary energy sources in the Netherlands and the decisive factors that led to the prominent role of natural gas in this country. These considerations formed the basis for discussion on the contemporary energy policy in the Netherlands.
