Sumario:Energy security is an overall and crucial issue related to a country’s economic and social development. It is essential to the country’s development, the improvement of people’s lives, and the long-term stability of society. International energy cooperation has always played an important role in ensuring energy security. As the connotation of energy security shifts toward multiple dimensions, the positioning and main tasks of international energy cooperation are facing renewal and evolution. Based on the latest domestic and foreign situations in the energy sector and considering the new connotation of energy security, this study comprehensively elaborates the positioning of international energy cooperation in China in the new era and analyzes the key issues in the recent international energy cooperation. It is pointed out by the research that the new energy security concept proposes new and higher requirements for China’s international energy cooperation. In the near future, it should focus on promoting the establishment of a diversified import and trade pattern for oil and gas, strengthen the interconnection of electricity with neighboring countries, increase cooperation in advanced energy technologies, and actively participate in and lead the global energy governance, so as to lay a solid foundation to ensure energy security under open-up conditions.
