national companies – on the assumption that investment is forthcoming

Summary & conclusions

 Current energy trends are patently unsustainable — socially,


environmentally, economically
 Oil will remain the leading energy source but...
> The era of cheap oil is over, although price volatility will remain
> The oil market is undergoing major and lasting structural change, with
national companies in the ascendancy
 Energy and geopolitics will be increasingly interconnected
 We need a major decarbonisation of the world’s energy system --
Copenhagen is crucial
 Addressing environmental issues will substantially improve energy
security
 Financial crisis can plant the seeds for an “energy investment crisis”
