Abstract: Abstract: The China’s energy structure dominated by coal has severely hampered the development of low-carbon economy. A great many of experts and scholars do a lot of studies on optimization of China’s energy structure. In that context, Temporal distribution characteristics of papers and progress of energy structure are analyzed. The progress of energy structure is reviewed from the aspect of characteristics of energy structure, influence factors, optimization model and countermeasures. Then the research directions in the future are forecasted to guide the energy structure research. The results are follows. ①Research on optimization of China’s energy structure is at the initial stage and in a stage of rapid development after 2004. The quality and quantity of papers are improved significantly in the later stage. ②Characteristics of energy structure include dominant position of coal, high outer dependency for oil, low energy efficiency, backward energy technique, distortions in the prices of energy and low resources disposition efficiency. ③Influence factors include energy price, resource endowment structure, economic development, population, industrial structure and energy consumption. ④Study on energy structure transformation path optimization and energy structure evaluation system in the future is of great significance.
