Global Energy AssessmentTowards a more Sustainable Future • The magnitudeof the change required is huge • The challenge is to find a way forward that addresses all the issues simultaneously • A paradigm shift is needed: energy end-use efficiency, new renewables, advanced nuclear and carbon capture and storage. Source: Johansson, 2005
Some Research Areasfor future collaboration • Integrated Assessment Framework:Modeling of long-term global and regional transitions • Decision Making under Uncertainty • Energy services: Understanding heterogeneity of energy consumers • Global Energy Assessment (GEA)
Confronting the Challenges of Energy for Sustainable Development: The Role of Scientific and Technical Analysis and its international partners present the www.GlobalEnergyAssessment.org
GEA Knowledge Clusters • Cluster I: Major Global Issues and Energy • assessment of the Challenges • Cluster II: Energy Resources and Technological Options • assessment of the Components available to build future energy systems • Cluster III: Possible Sustainable Futures • assessment of how to combine the Components to create Systems that address the Challenges –Scenario development • Cluster IV: Policies Advancing Energy for Sustainable Development • assessment of the Policies needed to address the Challenges and realize the Systems
