Energy is a human life and an important material foundation for the production, development of human society and human understanding of the history and use of energy is closely related to the history. In contemporary, and the development and utilization of energy resources not only a direct impact on human civilization and social and economic development, but also for international relations, international politics also have an increasingly important.Well-known British economist EF Schutz in 1964 pointed out: "The energy is irreplaceable, modern life is full of energy on the structure above. Although the energy like any other, like the sale of goods, but it is not just a kind of goods, But a prerequisite for all goods, and is air, water and soil of the same elements. "Economic development is highly dependent on energy, in order to determine the country's economic development must first of all to ensure adequate energy supply, therefore, to develop a their own Energy strategy has been gradually placing the country in an important strategic decision-making positions.At the same time, economic and political decisions, political counter-productive to the economy, energy development on the world economy has played a decisive role and its international relations, international politics have had a inextricably linked.Japan only to the United States is the world's second economic power, energy consumption is a big country. However, the Japanese energy shortages, energy security problem is related to the whole of its national economic development and even survival of the major issues. From the experience of countries in the world, no country is totally dependent on its energy resources to complete the country's industrialization process, Besides, Japan is a resource, in particular, are very energy-poor countries.For this reason, successive Japanese governments have always attached importance to the development and implementation of rational and effective energy strategy. In recent years, the Japanese government in accordance with the world's energy resources supply and demand trends in the long-term efforts to vigorously develop and implement energy constitute a diversification of energy import and diversification of the national strategic reserve-based energy development strategy to ensure long-term energy security Supply.Japan's energy strategy, not only for rapid economic development of China's pressing energy needs put forward a serious challenge for China's energy structure their own future strategies to provide some inspiration and learn; At the same time, Japan's energy strategy formulation and implementation of the North-East Asian Energy Cooperation and order in all the world's energy had a profound impact.This article consists of the following four components:For the first part of the introduction, mainly to Japan's energy strategy to be a comprehensive exposition of the following three chapters lay the foundation for discussion. Here mainly to Japan and the evolution of energy strategy at the core, Japan's energy strategy is divided into four major periods, that the war in the early 1970s the two oil crises, and after the oil crisis after the Cold War, which naturally leads to a In this paper, the focus - the post-Cold War Japan's energy strategy.The second part of the Cold War after the establishment of Japan's energy strategy. It will be part of the theory and practice: First of all, starting from the perspective of the concept in detail the energy and the concept of energy strategy, the clear meaning of the two also discussed the characteristics of energy - political and economic duality, And pointed out the strategic importance of energy; Second, continue to be in the form of the theory discussed in Japan's national energy strategy strategy. On the whole "energy in the international politics of the rising status of the" point of view on the basis of the discussion of Japan's national energy strategy, as well as the impact of energy strategy for Japan to realize the role of the national interest; Finally, before the two parts of this theory From the reality of life among the great energy to the role of Japan's energy strategy on the basis of established. The main authors selected two important aspects, namely the post-Cold War world economy, the rapid development of the energy demand in Japan, as well as energy supply and demand situation.The third part focuses on the post-Cold War Japan's energy strategy and its evaluation of the content. If the body of the above, Japan's energy resources in very short supply, while Japan is a big country in energy consumption. In order to protect the national economy, the rapid development of energy demand in Japan both the Government and civil society have devoted a great deal of effort. Including the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, overseas energy development, new energy development and use of energy as well as the diversification of energy conservation and so on five areas. From the Government's perspective, the Japanese government in the legal, policy, funding and other aspects have also made great efforts; from the private sector perspective, the Japanese public on government policies, also called on to respond positively, whether reserves of energy, Development of energy, energy conservation or energy use, Japan's national enterprises and have shown a great addition to the initiative. Possession of the people is a combination of energy in Japan has made no small achievement, but as Japan's economy on the development of ever-increasing demand for energy, Japan's energy strategy has been showing a variety of issues, mainly in the energy structure as well as unreasonable In the new energy development and utilization of the difficulties that exist, and so on.The fourth part focuses on the prospects for Japan's energy strategy. Part of this is built on the basis of the first three parts in Japan's energy strategy on the establishment of Japan's energy strategy, energy strategy, Japan's achievements and problems, all aspects of the comprehensive energy strategy, Japan tried to infer the development trend of Japan's energy strategy and will combine with China, trying to analyze from Japan on China's energy strategy, energy strategy to determine what can learn from, and then analysis of Japan's energy strategy on energy cooperation as well as the Northeast has the world's energy order. In accordance with the author's point of view, the combination of Japan's energy strategy development and evolution, for some time to come to Japan will be the development of nuclear energy and to strengthen international cooperation in the future as an energy focus, and this is in line with today's world of economic globalization trends. Japan on China's energy strategy, I believe that is reflected in some of the main aspects: First, with particular emphasis on oil reserves; Second, the emphasis on energy diplomacy; Third, the emphasis on diversification of energy sources; Fourth, the development of great importance Renewable energy; fifth, to vigorously promote energy conservation. Japan on the energy strategy on energy cooperation in Northeast Asia, as described in the body, the face of the current world energy situation, especially the volatile situation in the Middle East, Japan has been increasing awareness of the importance of diversification of energy sources, Japan This is also aware that one of the most important "one dollar" is sure to be exact, or the East Asian region should be in the northeast Asian region, largely as a result of the Northeast Asian region is rich in natural resources, resources in the world which occupies a large proportion. Therefore, Japan will continue to push forward energy cooperation in Northeast Asia development, which is bound to the entire world energy order, did have an impact. At the same time, Japan's such a large overseas energy development strategy, as well as with Japan in Northeast Asia and countries outside the area of energy cooperation is bound to the world energy order to maintain a positive impact.
