Abstract With the global energy competition becoming increasingly intense, countries are paying more and more attention to the energy interests of the Arctic which is no ownership area. Based on the complex network perspective, drawing on the concept of the Pan Arctic State and using Pajek, Ucinet and ArcGIS, this paper makes an in-depth study on the evolution process and its multi-dimension proximity. The main conclusions are as follows. Firstly, the networks tend to be dense. The center of supply network is shifting westward, while the center of consumer network is expanding eastwards. Energy trade presents a spatial pattern of high separation between production and marketing. Secondly, the network is characterized by the "coreperipheral" structure. Energy trade has formed a "three poles" pattern dominated by the United State, Canada and Russia. Thirdly, the dominant flow shows three subgroups and the energy grouping is becoming patently obvious. Eastern European countries gradually become the "structural hole" of network. Fourthly, the evolution of networks is driven by multi-dimension proximity. Economic differences are endogenous. Geographical proximity is the key spatial foundation. Organizational proximity is the main driver.
