Survey of Energy Resources and Technologies

When will the world run out of oil?
What is the status and the potential of shale gas, biomass, wind, solar and other renewable and fossil energy resources?
What are the issues with smart grids, energy-water linkages, carbon capture and sequestration, clean coal technologies, generation IV nuclear or the e-mobility?
What is the energy return on energy invested?
How much difference can benchmarking and improving performance of existing power plant make?

The World Energy Council, in the interest of our sustainable energy future, has been conducting the Survey of Energy Resources for over 60 years and now also assesses current and emerging technologies and resources to provide a solid basis for policy and strategy decision processes
