Tipping the energy world off its axis
Four large-scale upheavals in global energy set the scene for the new Outlook:
The United States is turning into the undisputed global leader for oil & gas
Solar PV is on track to be the cheapest source of new electricity in many countries
China’s new drive to “make the skies blue again” is recasting its role in energy
The future is electrifying, spurred by cooling, electric vehicles & digitalisation
These changes brighten the prospects for affordable, sustainable energy & require a reappraisal of approaches to energy security
There are many possible pathways ahead & many potential pitfalls if governments or industry misread the signs of change
