World Energy Outlook 2008
World Energy Demand (1/7)
The International Energy Agency (IEA) projects that world’s primary energy needs will grow by 55 percent between 2005 and 2030. Fossil fuels will remain the dominant source of primary energy, accounting for 84 percent of the overall increase in demand by 2030.

World Energy Outlook 2008
World Energy Demand II (2/7)
Developing countries will contribute 74 percent of the increase in global primary energy, predicts the IEA. China and India alone will account for 45 percent of this increase. OECD countries account for one-fifth. In aggregate, developing countries make up 47 percent of the global energy market in 2015 and more than half in 2030. (Graphic: IEA 2007)

World Energy Outlook 2008
Oil Demand in China and India (3/7)
In the IEA's reference scenario, China’s and India’s combined oil imports surge from 5.4 million barrels per day in 2006 to 19.1 million barrels per day in 2030 – more than the combined imports of Japan and the United States today. (Graphic: IEA 2007)

World Energy Outlook 2008
CO2-Emissions: Top Five (4/7)
Growing fossil fuel use will
continue to drive up global energy-related CO2 emissions. Emissions are projected to jump by 57 percent between 2005
and 2030. The United States, China, Russia, and India will account for two-thirds of this increase. (Graphic: IEA 2007)

World Energy Outlook 2008
CO2 Emission Scenarios (5/7)
This year, China overtakes the United States as the world’s biggest CO2 emitter. India will become the third-largest emitter by around 2015.
In the IEA's Alternative Policy (best-case) Scenario, rising CO2-equivalent concentration in the atmosphere could lead to an increase in average temperature of around 3 degrees Celsius. (Graphic: IEA 2007)

World Energy Outlook 2008
Investment in Energy Infrastructure (6/7)
Some 22 trillion U.S. dollars of investment in supply infrastructure is needed to meet projected global demand, says the IEA. China alone needs to invest some 3.7 trillion dollars to add a necessary 1,300 Gigawatts to its electricity-generating capacity, more than the total current installed capacity in the United States.

World Energy Outlook 2008
China Electricity Capacity Growth (7/7)
China, with four times as many people, overtakes the United States to become the world’s largest energy consumer soon
after 2010. In the period to 2015, China’s demand grows by 5.1 percent per year, driven mainly by a continuing boom in heavy industry. (Graphic: IEA 2007)
