[ABSTRAK
Tiongkok merupakan penghasil dan pengguna batu bara terbesar di dunia. Banyaknya penggunaan batu bara menggiring Tiongkok pada krisis energi. Terjadinya krisis energi serta merebaknya dampak buruk energi berbahan bakar batu bara terhadap lingkungan membuat pemerintah Tiongkok mulai menaruh perhatian khusus pada energi terbarukan. Tujuan penulisan makalah ini adalah memberi gambaran umum tentang kebijakan energi terbarukan di Tiongkok, mendeskripsikan faktor-faktor yang melatarbelakangi kebijakan sumber daya energi terbarukan di Tiongkok selama kurun waktu 1996−2010, dan memaparkan programprogram yang dijalankan pemerintah Tiongkok terkait penerapan kebijakan sumber energi terbarukan. Tiongkok saat ini menjadi penghasil energi terbarukan terbesar di dunia. Pemerintah Tiongkok menunjukkan keseriusan untuk terus mengembangkan dan mengimplementasikan kebijakan yang lebih ramah lingkungan demi masa depan yang lebih baik.
