Abstract

What are the effects of the intensification of energy interdependence between Russia, the world's second largest exporter of hydrocarbons, and China, the world's largest importer? Bilateral interdependence is the lever for the hybridization of the institutions governing international energy relations. Based on the issues of power and energy security, the intensification of interdependence leads to institutional changes, known as hybridisation, which are linked to a specific security-efficiency trade-off. Four factors shape this hybridisation: the structural context faced by the actors, the strategic behaviour of the state-firm complex, sectoral properties and existing institutional arrangements.
