China, the world's largest importer of crude oil and gas, imported 440 million tons of crude oil in 2018, a year-on-year increase of 11 percent, with its foreign oil dependency ratio reaching 69.8 percent.
"However, whether the technological and capital investment will meet the oil and gas output remains to be observed, and it remains challenging to achieve energy self-sufficiency considering the high dependency on oil imports under the current situation.

According to Tufan, the expo will help design brands and products with newer-generation tools for modern individuals while reducing the dependency on petrol.
China's dependency ratio — the number of children and elderly divided by the number of working-age people — is expected to increase from 45 percent in 2021 to 71 percent by 2050, the same ratio as Japan's today.
As the aged population continues to grow, the old-age dependency ratio, which is the ratio of elder individuals compared to those who are still of working age, will rise rapidly, posing severe challenges to economic and social development.
Old-age dependency ratios were much higher in the US (18), Canada (19), Britain (22), France (24), Germany (24), Italy (27) and Japan (36).
By mid-century, China's dependency ratio will have risen to 32, higher than the US(28) and Canada (31) but still lower than Britain (33), France (39), Germany (41), Italy (54) and Japan (58).
If a rising old-age dependency ratio is going to be a major economic shock, with each worker having to support more economically inactive population members, it will hit many if not most other major economies as hard.
The increase of population dependency ratio and the change in structural factors are the main determinants of the change in residents' savings.
Moreover, the aging population issue, in the future, will further boost the dependency ratio.
As China relies heavily on oil and natural gas imports, with dependency currently reaching 71.2 percent and 40.2 percent, respectively, hydrogen will make China less reliant on traditional fossil fuels and accelerate energy transition, said global consultancy Accenture.

Gas imports declined 10.4 percent year-on-year in 2022 to 152.07 billion cubic meters with its dependency rate dropping to 40.2 percent, after continuous and substantial growth of natural gas imports during the past few years, according to Fu Xiangsheng, vice-chairman of the CPCIF.
Analysts attributed the drop in oil and gas imports and decreasing energy dependency to higher oil and gas prices as well as domestic energy companies' efforts in boosting local oil field exploration in recent years.
China's low-carbon transition－led by its commitment to peak carbon emissions by 2030 and reach carbon neutrality by 2060－also provides a concrete solution to reduce China's oil dependency.
During the transition process, electric vehicles play an important role in reducing carbon dioxide emissions and can reduce oil dependency by accelerating the replacement of gasoline-powered vehicles with EVs.
However, thanks to increasing efforts by domestic energy companies, including China National Petroleum Corp, China Petroleum and Chemical Corp and China National Offshore Oil Corp, in local oil field exploration and exploitation in the past few years, the country has witnessed a drop in crude imports and decreasing energy import dependency.
Analysts attribute the drop of crude imports and decreasing energy dependency to increasing efforts by domestic energy companies in local oil field exploration and exploitation in the past few years, which has further enhanced domestic energy security.

They are capable of independently running large language models (LLMs) and applications, and are free from traditional cloud dependency — a critical turning point in the development of electronics, according to a white paper released by market consultancy International Data Corp and US chipmaker AMD recently.
Industry insiders said the move is part of China's broader efforts to relieve environmental pollution and reduce its dependency on imported petroleum as methanol, a clean fuel that can be made from abundant coal resources in China, is widely seen as an ideal alternative energy.
"In addition, the guideline is of significance to diversify the country's fuel sources to reduce China's dependency on importing petroleum as China has a huge demand for energy and is the world's second-largest energy consuming country," Jia noted.
Promoting methanol fuel as an alternative can help reduce such dependency," He said.
Thus, promoting methanol fuel as an alternative is important to reduce the country's dependency on imported resources," He said.
