The Effects of China’s Energy Security Strategy on US Interests Erik French, Makoto Saito, and Thomas Hao Sun

1. Maritime Security China is concerned about the vulnerability of its sea- borne oil imports

US Interests To address this dilemma, China is improving its capacity to project maritime military power In the absence of dialogue, this destabilizes regional relations and fuels concern over Chinese intentions

China’s Power Projection Capabilities Building a support network – Wooing key states for port access Improving military hardware – Aircraft Carrier projects – Nuclear submarines (JIN-class, Type 095) – Airpower and surface combatants

2. Environmental Concerns

China’s Energy Security China’s growing demand for energy would lead up to a competition for world’s limited energy resource The strategies include bilateral/international cooperation to ensure sustainable development and world energy security

US Interests U.S. also need to explore new energy source to ensure energy and national security More consumption of fossil fuels could make it harder to address global warming Bilateral partnership with China to develop Clean energy has been major efforts

3. Chinese Relationship with “Rogue States” To meet its increasing demand, China has been relying on external cheap oil supply, “Rogue States” are among these suppliers

US Interests Human Right Protection and Promotion of Democracy (Sudan & Syria ) Fighting Terrorism, Regional Security and Nuclear Non-proliferation (Sanctions on Iran)

China and “Rogue States” Iran: China will support Iran from the concerns of ideology, geopolitical security and energy supply. Trade increase 52% after sanctions in 2010 Sudan: China has been relying on the oil supply from South Sudan government and projecting soft power

Policy Recommendations: Engagement Strengthen current dialogue on climate change and incorporate Japan Reform IPR policy to facilitate the transfer of green technology Provide incentives for US and Japanese green- tech companies to invest in China Promote R&D and tech-transfer for green fuels to reduce China’s dependency on oil for transport fuel

Policy Recommendations: Engagement Highlight mutual interests and propose an annual strategic dialogue on maritime security Encourage joint naval exercises and military contacts Ultimately, work towards a multilateral regional maritime security framework
