Abstract

The energy industry must deliver “more” and “cleaner” energy to meet global stakeholder needs for energy abundance and security of supply, while also addressing sustainability and responsible care for the planet including mitigating risks to climate.    A portfolio of options and solutions will be required, taking into account a diverse array of existing infrastructures, global resources, as well as economies and policies, giving rise to unprecedented rates of change in energy systems over the next century.    This seminar will present scenarios for addressing the challenge of sustainable future energy, and overview some of the technology developments underway to manage the energy transition.
