- 14:50 – 15:10 Discussion
The APEC Energy Demand and Supply Outlook 8th Edition (“the Outlook”) provides projections of energy demand and supply for each of the 21 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) member economies. First published in 1998, the Outlook provides analytic support for member economies by identifying major challenges and opportunities facing the region’s energy sector and assesses the impact of current energy trends and policies on the region’s fuel mix, energy goals, and CO2 emissions. This edition explores two scenarios through 2050:
The Reference scenario (REF): REF reflects a continuation of existing trends in technology development and deployment, and current government programs and policies.
The Carbon Neutrality scenario (CN): CN illustrates a pathway with additional energy intensity and carbon intensity improvements. These improvements are supported by technological advancements and ambitious policy frameworks that are constructed based on the unique characteristics, objectives, and starting points of each economy.
Speaker:
Glen E. Sweetnam is currently the Senior Vice President for APERC in Tokyo, Japan. In this position, he leads the research and analytic work of experts from APEC member economies.
