The context: fresh challenges add to already worrying trends
Economic concerns have diverted attention from energy policy & limited
the means of intervention
Post-Fukushima, nuclear is facing uncertainty
MENA turmoil raised questions about region’s investment plans
CO2 emissions rebounded to a record high

Emerging economies continue to drive global energy demand
Growth in primary energy demand in the New Policies Scenario
Global energy demand increases by one-third from 2010 to 2035, with China & India accounting for 50% of the growth

Natural gas & renewables become increasingly important
Renewables & natural gas collectively meet almost two-thirds of incremental energy demand in 2010-2035

Efficiency improvements in transport sector limit oil demand growth
World PLDV oil demand in the New Policies Scenario
Oil use by cars expands by only 15% between 2010 & 2035, with more efficient vehicles, less usage & switching to non-oil fuels offsetting most of the impact of a doubling of the fleet

Changing oil import needs are set toshift concerns about oil security
Net imports of oil
US oil imports drop due to rising domestic output & improved transport efficiency: EU imports overtake those of the US around 2015; China becomes the largest importer around 2020

Efficiency gains can contribute most to EU emissions reductions
Energy efficiency measures – driven by strong policy action across all sectors – account for 50% of the cumulative CO2 abatement over the Outlook period
