Energy in South Korea describes energy and electricity production, consumption and importation in South Korea. South Korea is a major energy importer, importing nearly all of its oil needs and being the second-largest importer of liquefied natural gas in the world. Electricity generation in the country comes from conventional thermal power, which accounts for more than two thirds of production, and from nuclear power.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eia.gov/countries/country-data.cfm?fips=KS )〕 Energy producers were dominated by government enterprises, although privately operated coal mines and oil refineries also existed. The National Assembly enacted a broad electricity sector restructuring program in 2000, but the restructuring process was halted amid political controversy in 2004 and remains a topic of intense political debate.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.keei.re.kr/keei/download/keer/KEER14_1301_60.pdf )〕 South Korea has no proven oil reserves.〔 Exploration until the 1980s in the Yellow Sea and on the continental shelf between Korea and Japan did not find any offshore oil. Coal supply in the country is insufficient and of low quality. The potential for hydroelectric power is limited because of high seasonal variations in the weather and the concentration of most of the rainfall in the summer. Accordingly, the government is increasingly focused on developing nuclear power generation.〔http://www.sciencediplomacy.org/article/2015/approaches-nuclear-cooperation〕 == Overview == Final energy consumption by source (2010):〔http://www.polsoz.fu-berlin.de/polwiss/forschung/systeme/ffu/veranstaltungen_aktuell/veranstaltungen_downloads/11_salzburg/Leem.pdf〕 * Coal: 27.6 MTOE (14.2%) * Petroleum: 100.5 MTOE (51.6%) * LNG: 21.9 MTOE (11.3%) * Electricity: 37.3 MTOE (19.2%) * Heat: 1.7 MTOE (0.9%) * Renewable: 5.8 MTOE (3%) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Energy in South Korea」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
