The landmark Paris Agreement on climate change will transform the global energy system for decades to come.
The latest World Energy Outlook offers the most comprehensive analysis of what this transformation of the energy sector might look like, thanks to its energy projections to 2040. It reviews the key opportunities and challenges ahead for renewable energy, the central pillar of the low-carbon energy transition, as well as the critical role for energy efficiency.
WEO-2016 examines how a post-Paris world redefines the idea of energy security, particularly in the power sector, the frontline in the fight against climate change. The report explores how oil, natural gas and coal are adjusting to today’s market conditions and assesses the risks that lie ahead, from under-investment in essential supply to stranded assets.
This year, the regional focus is on Mexico’s energy sector. The WEO 2016 also presents an in-depth analysis on energy and water as well as energy security (including input from the IEA’s new World Energy Investment report).
WEO-2016 looks at individual country pledges and examines how close – or far – nations are from reaching their goals. It outlines a course that would limit the rise in global temperature to below 2 °C and also plots possible pathways for meeting even more ambitious goals.
This year, WEO-2016 also devotes a special chapter to the critical interplay between water and energy and the stress points that arise as the linkages between these two sectors intensify.
Presenter:
Laura Cozzi is in charge of the quantitative analysis and modelling of the IEA flagship publication World Energy Outlook and has co-authored sixteen editions of the WEO and led the WEO special reports on energy and climate, investment and Africa. Cozzi has led the WEO analysis on climate change and the environment, energy demand and energy efficiency for over a decade. Prior to joining the IEA in 1999, Cozzi worked for the Italian oil company ENI S.p.A.
