Global Energy Demand For Different Energy Sources: Current Status and Future Prospects
Ahmed Jassim Al-Yasiri
Abstract
Future expectations indicate a significant increase in the rates of fossil energy use over the coming decades in light of many factors (population growth and high rates of global economic growth). However, despite a shift at the worldwide level of the diversification of energy supplies, this diversification still constitutes a small percentage of energy production globally. In light of this, three long-term scenarios have been proposed that analyze this sector's potential and future possibilities within the outlook of the global energy landscape
