Abstract

In this work we develop a new approach to study the energy import resilience of an economy using linear programming and economic input–output analysis. In particular, we propose an energy import resilience index by examining the maximum level of energy import reduction that the economy can endure without sacrificing domestic demands. A mixed integer programming model is then developed to compute the resilience index efficiently. The methodology is applied to a case study using China input–output data to study the energy import resilience under different power generation portfolio assumptions. We demonstrate how our models can be used to uncover important inter-sectoral dependencies, and to guide decision-makers in improving the energy resilience in a systematic manner.
