The paper analyzes the development of oil and gas supplies to the world market. The structure of oil and gas imports and exports is revealed. It is shown that taking into account the annual growth of global energy consumption, there is an increase in the supply of carbohydrates. The modern global energy supply system is highly international in nature.

The article discusses the main prerequisites for the development of nuclear energy in the global econo-my, also defines nuclear energy and discusses the structure of global energy consumption. The article proves that the crucial prerequisite for the development of nuclear energy in the world market is the economic efficiency of nuclear power plants.

The industrial sector dominates the global energy consumption and carbon emissions in end use sectors, and it faces challenges in emission reductions to reach the Paris Agreement goals. This paper analyzes and quantifies the relationship between industrialization, energy systems, and carbon emissions. Firstly, it forecasts the global and regional industrialization trends under Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) and Shared Socioeconomic Pathway2 (SSP2) scenarios. Then, it projects the global and regional energy consumption that aligns with the industrialization trend, and optimizes the global energy supply system using the Model for Energy Supply Strategy Alternatives and their General Environmental Impact (MESSAGE) model for the industrial sector. Moreover, it develops an expanded Kaya identity to comprehensively investigate the drivers of industrial carbon emissions. In addition, it employs a Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) approach to track the historical contributions of various drivers of carbon emissions, as well as predictions into the future. This paper finds that economic development and population growth are the two largest drivers for historical industrial CO2 emissions, and that carbon intensity and industry energy intensity are the top two drivers for the decrease of future industrial CO2 emissions. Finally, it proposes three modes, i.e., clean supply, electrification, and energy efficiency for industrial emission reduction.

The article attempts to analyze the American strategy for maintaining the status quo in the global energy supply system, as well as to reveal the main causes of the destruction of this system. At this stage, there is a sharp increase in the interdependence of politics and energetics as well as their merger. Therefore, one of the main messages of the article is the thesis that oil and related issues were at the center of the US Middle East foreign policy. It was determined that the main components of the US strategy were maintaining access to oil resources in the Middle East and strengthening their positions in the region, which was stipulated by the factor of intersystem confrontation. The doctrinal foundations of the American oil strategy in the region were determined. The evolution of political processes in the Middle East, which led to the destruction of the foundations of the global energy supply system, was examined. It is shown how dynamic changes in international politics and the world economy influenced the transformation of American politics in the Middle East with elements of balancing between the countries of the region, for which oil and energetics, in general, have become the main factor in foreign policy. It was the study of political and economic processes in their dynamics that allowed the author to highlight critical moments in international politics and economics. Important place in the article is devoted to the activities of American oil companies, their economic relations with the governments of the Middle East countries, which became the subject of political confrontation between these countries and the U.S. Based on the given facts, it was established that the US policy to maintain the status quo in the Middle East had been actually stopped in the early 1970s. Instead, it was not formed the clear long term course of foreign policy, which could provide the interests of the USA and its allies in the field of economics and energetics.

More and more countries are focusing on the lack of resources with the consumption of large quantities of fossil energy. The Chinese government is actively promoting the policies related to the transformation of the energy structure which will increase the proportion of clean energy consumption and reduce the proportion of fossil energy consumption in order to relieve the pressure on domestic energy. Interest in the generation of biogas from agricultural residues is increasing rapidly due to its climate benefits. This article is committed to analysis the economic performance of the biogas cogeneration energy supply system of livestock and poultry breeding plants in southern China. The model of the biogas cogeneration energy supply system of livestock and poultry breeding plants in southern China and the advices to the government will also been proposed as a result. According to the results, biogas cogeneration system is feasible in economy with reasonable device configuration and operating strategy.

This study releases a fact that the national energy supply system could extend its spatial bordering as the demands for the fuels, especially oil and gas, increased and the structure of energy supply diversified. It is, therefore, that a coordinated energy supply would be a key issue for national energy security, not only because an uneven distribution of mineral resources of both a country and the whole world but also the changeable environments for national energy supply itself. The case study of Chinese snowstorm in 2008 just proved it, and to say nothing of the recent Japan's nuclear crisis.

In the design and operation of energy intensive systems, the possibility of improving the system’s efficiency is very important to explore. The main way of improving efficiency is through optimisation. This paper describes the application of exergy topological models and, in particular, the graph of thermoeconomical expenditure for thermoeconomical optimal design s of circled nets for energy supply (CNES). The questions of thermoeconomical optimisation of CNES, as well as suggested modelling algorithms, are illustrated in the numerical example of the optimisation of a energy supply system for a city with seven regions of energy consumption.

Europe has been in the forefront of the development and implementation of the peaceful use of nuclear energy since the beginning, with the commissioning of the first nuclear plants in the world in the early fifties; today, nuclear power represents a significant contributor to the global energy supply in the continent (around 30%, i.e., almost twice as much as the world average). This paper investigates the current situation of nuclear in Europe, and whether there is a future for nuclear after the 2011 events. In preparation for the ASME PVP2013 conference to be held in Paris, France, next year, the paper aims at introducing our colleagues from all over the world into the European nuclear issues.
