The result of the “first global stocktake”, the core of COP28 agenda, showed that we are far from achieving the Paris Agreement objective and commitments. To limit global warming up to 1.5°C, greenhouse gases must be reduced by 43% in 2030, compared to 2019 levels. [1] Likewise, the agency Wood Mackenzie adjusted its sceneries, while still maintain the premises of its base case, considered “the most probable case”, now a new scenery called “delayed energy transition” has been added, in which, a delay of five years in decarbonization actions has been analyzed. The base case considers a global average temperature rise to 2,5°C by 2050, based on energy transition relied on policies promoting the progressively use of renewable energy...
Energy is essential for economic development and its evolution is highly dynamic nowadays. I would like to share my thoughts an analysis about the energy market, addressing issues related to fossil and renewables energies, energy transition and carbon emission reduction, as well as, economic and geopolitical aspects. I am aimed to provide some understandings about the energy sector, its trends and contribute to design strategies for market players.
