This paper expounds on the tendency of energy supervision reform with consideration to the general background of energy reform.It proposes the following aspects.First,the focus of energy supervision should shift to in-process and post supervision after cancellation or decentralization of energy project approval,Hence,the supervision over construction and completion acceptance is reinforced.Second,with the progression of marketoriented reforms in the electricity and petroleum sectors,relevant energy authorities should strengthen supervision on key aspects in the electricity and petroleum sectors,particularly by way of specific supervision and problem supervision,in order to keep the market fair,open and transparent.Third,innovative supervision modes should be adopted to improve supervision performance,so as to realize effective supervision and finally achieve standardized and normalized energy supervision.These proposals represent both the challenges and tasks that the supervision authorities face but also highlight important chances to realize the energy supervision revolution.Energy enterprises should continuously update themselves on the reforms and actions of energy supervision in order to meet the compliance requirements of construction and operation.
