The context
Soaring energy prices to mid-2008, followed by a drop – what will it mean for demand?
How will the financial crisis & economic slowdown affect energy demand & investment?
Will economic worries divert attention from strategic energy security & environmental challenges?
Are we setting ourselves up for a supply crunch once the economy is back on its feet?
Will negotiators at COP-15 in Copenhagen in 2009 have the
political support needed to succeed?

Summary & conclusions
Current energy trends are unsustainable — socially, environmentally AND economically
Oil will remain the leading energy source but...
> The era of cheap oil is over, although price volatility will remain
> Oilfield decline is the key determinant of investment needs
> The oil market is undergoing major and lasting structural change, with national companies in the ascendancy
To avoid "abrupt and irreversible" climate change we need a major decarbonisation of the world’s energy system
> Copenhagen must deliver a credible post-2012 climate regime
> Limiting temperature rise to 2 C will require significant emission reductions in all regions & technological breakthroughs
> Mitigating climate change will substantially improve energy security
The present economic worries do not excuse back-tracking or delays in taking action to address energy challenges
