Abstract

This note reviews the indexes used in academic studies and official reports to quantify energy security levels. With the enrichment of energy security connotation, the dimension and organization of such indexes have undergone changes, such as the index becoming much more complex and the indicators considering more environmental, technological, and social issues. Though official reports have preferred projections more than journal papers, projections are still not a main focus of the energy security index.
