Global Energy Trends and Transition

The worldwide energy sector is going through dramatic shifts in energy demand, end-uses, and sources. Population growth and economic growth are driving up total demand. Industrialization, urbanization, electrification, and motorization are changing how we use energy. And a policy push for domestic, low-carbon, and renewable fuels is changing our energy sources. At the same time, we are entering an era where markets, technologies, and policies are enabling dramatic increases in U.S. production of oil, gas, wind, solar, and bioenergy that is affecting global economies, the environment, and our national security posture. In parallel, our energy and information sectors are merging to form smarter energy systems and more energy-intensive information systems.

For this talk, Dr. Webber will give an entertaining and big-picture overview of global energy trends mixed in with humorous anecdotes, historical snippets, and unexpected examples that will give a surprising look into the future of energy.
