Energy serves as an indispensable material basis for modern society, and the energy industry is a vital basic industry that must be ptioritized in the process of industrialization in all countries across the world. Today, industrialized countries have put in place their own energy supply system in line with local conditions concerning resources and geo-economics, boasting relatively higher per capita energy consumption. In comparison, the per capita energy consumption is generally lower in developing countries where a modern energy supply system is mostly in absence and the universal energy service not adequate enough. As the technologies for development, production, conversion, supply, and consumption of energy and fesources were largely monopolized by developed countries in the past, most developing countries had to rely on imported energy equipment and faced great difficulties in developing independent energy industry and equiupment manufacturing industry, which has been largely true even to the present day. How to develop an independent energy industry and meet the demand for energy in industrialization and household use? This is still a fundamental question to be answered by all countries in the world, developing countries in particular.
