Energy is at the nexus of national security, economic prosperity and the environment. The Department of State’s work in national security, bilateral and multilateral diplomacy, commercial advocacy and development are widely affected by energy concerns. The Bureau of Energy Resources integrates energy security interests into foreign policy decision making, putting energy diplomacy at the forefront of U.S. foreign policy along three pillars.

能源與國家安全、經濟繁榮和環境密切相關。國務院在國家安全、雙邊和多邊外交、商業倡導和發展方面的工作都受到能源因素的廣泛影響。能源資源局將能源安全利益納入外交政策決策過程，從三個方面將能源外交置于美國外交政策的前沿。

Energy Diplomacy

能源外交

To identify opportunities for geostrategic cooperation through energy in interdependent markets, we:

為了確定在互相依賴的市場上展開能源地緣戰略合作的機會，我們：

Forge strong diplomatic relationships with major consumers and suppliers, anticipate the impacts of changing energy markets and leverage our role in energy-related international organizations as we recognize that energy disruptions anywhere can threaten economic growth everywhere.

建立與主要消費者和供應商的牢固的外交關系，預先考慮到變化的能源市場造成的影響，發揮我國在與能源相關的國際組織中的杠桿作用，因為我們認識到，任何地方的能源供應中斷都會威脅到所有地方的經濟增長。

Promote a stable and secure global energy economy by engaging foreign governments and the private sector to maintain the security of supply and pursue alternative energy options and diversification of energy types. Our efforts include effectively implementing sanctions as diplomatic tool.

推動穩定和安全的全球能源經濟，與外國政府和民營部門合作，維護供應的安全，并尋求替代能源方案和能源類型的多樣化。我們的努力包括有效地實施作為外交手段的制裁。

Respond to major changes in natural gas markets as they impact current and future energy choices.

對天然氣市場的重大變動作出回應，因為這些變動影響到當前和未來的能源選擇。

Energy World of the Future

未來的能源世界

To stimulate the market forces that will sustain Energy Transformation in alternative energy, electricity development, and reconstruction, we: Foster the development of regional electricity grids and regulatory harmonization to create larger markets, enhance reliability and energy efficiency and facilitate integration and trade from clean energy sources and technologies. Encourage the establishment of financially viable electric power systems that can attract the huge private investment ($17 trillion by 2035) needed to meet growing electricity demands, especially in developing regions. Advance U.S. business partnerships for adoption and commercialization of efficient and innovative energy technologies for sustainable development.

為了激勵將在替代能源、電力開發和重建領域維持能源轉型的市場力量，我們：促進區域電網的發展和監管協調以創造更大的市場、提高可靠性和能源效率，并促進清潔能源和技術的整合及交易。鼓勵建立財政可行的電力系統，吸引大量所需的民間投資（到2035年時達到17萬億美元）滿足日益增長的電力需求，尤其在發展中地區。推動美國商業伙伴關系，為促進可持續發展采用高效及創新能源技術并實現商業化。

Energy Governance and Access

能源管理和獲得渠道

To counter poverty and development issues due to lack of access to energy, poor resource management or both, we: Encourage responsible resource management by promoting global transparency standards, developing countries’ technical capacity and supporting accountable legal and regulatory regimes and sound financial management in line with international standards. Expand energy access through economic statecraft and partnerships with development agencies to help encourage creation of commercially viable models backed by private investment.

為解決因缺乏獲得能源的渠道、不良資源管理或兩者共同造成的貧困及發展問題，我們：鼓勵負責任的資源管理，要求推動全球透明度標準，發展各國的技術能力并支持法律和監管問責體系及符合國際標準的健全的財務管理。通過經濟治國方略和與發展事務機構結成伙伴關系，鼓勵建立得到民間投資支持的可行商業模式，拓寬獲得能源的渠道。
