A war in Iran is causing big problems for oil around the world. Iran is stopping ships from carrying oil through an important water route. This makes it hard for many countries to get oil.
China buys more oil than any other country. It uses about 15 million barrels every day. China gets some oil from Iran and Saudi Arabia. But China also has other ways to get energy. It buys a lot of oil from Russia. It also uses coal to make electricity.
China has been smart about saving oil. It has stored about 900 million barrels of oil. This is enough for almost three months. China also uses clean energy like wind and solar power. Many people in China drive electric cars. These things help China during the energy crisis.
