West areas are the areas which are rich in energy resources and play an important role in ensuring national energy safety. However, energy industry clusters which have competitive advantage have not been formed in the west areas, and the inner mechanism and local cooperation network of industrial development have not been formed either, moreover, in the west areas, scientific and technological level is lower and there is big waster in energy development. West areas should implement cluster development strategy, make scientific plan, combine the mode from bottom to above and from above to bottom, foster and develop regional energy industry clusters which have comparative advantage.
