The International Energy Agency Undermines Global Climate Protection and Energy Security in Its Latest World Energy Outlook
The International Energy Agency undermines global climate protection and energy security in its latest World Energy Outlook Berlin, November 2016 The International Energy Agency’s call for new investments in fossil fuels, in particular oil and gas, in its latest World Energy Outlook (WEO) undermines the agency’s seemingly positive messages related to climate protection and the development of renewable energy, an analysis by the Energy Watch Group shows. The World Energy Outlook 2016, which was presented today in Berlin, calls for increased investment in oil and gas due to oil discoveries at lowest level in more than 60 years and low oil prices. The International Energy Agency (IEA) thereby disregards that the current low investment is in fact caused by the lack of new discoveries and the depletion of existing reserves. Moreover, higher oil prices will not be able to compensate for the lack of funding as cost reductions in the renewable energy sector increasingly challenge the competitiveness of oil and gas. „Even if oil prices were to rise again, future oil production will not stay at today’s level, simply because of the limited availability. By calling for increased investments in oil, the IEA undermines climate protection efforts and threatens the global energy security. Only a rapid development of renewable energies can close the emerging energy supply gap. Oil investments are not able to do so”, says President of the Energy Watch Group and former member of the German Parliament Hans-Josef Fell. “Even in its most optimistic scenario, the IEA projects the future level of development of renewable energies to be far below today´s rates. -

March 18, 2021 To: Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen Secretary of State Anthony Blinken Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm Incoming President and Chairperson of the U.S. Export-Import Bank Acting CEO of the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation Dev Jagadesan Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs Jake Sullivan Special Assistant to the President for Economic Policy Robin Colwell [heads of other agencies and partner institutions, as appropriate] We are encouraged by the Biden Administration’s initial steps to implement a ‘whole-of-government’ approach to the climate crisis, as set out in the January 27 “Executive Order on Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad.” We are writing now to provide our recommendations on a critical piece of the international agenda described in the Executive Order — ending public support for fossil fuels around the world by “promoting the flow of capital toward climate-aligned investments and away from high-carbon investments.” We urge the Biden Administration to act swiftly to end new financing for all parts of the fossil fuel supply chain (including for gas), stop new U.S. fossil fuel support within 90 days across all government institutions, and work with other nations to end fossil fuel financing.1 As you know, averting the worst impacts of the climate crisis requires a rapid transition away from fossil fuels. There is simply no room left for new investments in long-lived carbon intensive infrastructure. Still, public agencies continue to provide tens of billions of dollars to finance and support such investments each year. This has to stop. -

International Energy Agency Still Gets Its World Energy Outlook Wrong
Energy Watch Group c/o DWR eco GmbH Albrechtstr. 22 10117 Berlin +49 (30) 609898810 [email protected] www.energywatchgroup.org International Energy Agency still gets its World Energy Outlook wrong The International Energy Agency (IEA) has been heavily underestimating the potential growth of renewable energy sources and overestimating the utilization possibilities of fossil and nuclear energy. The Energy Watch Group (EWG) and Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT), have documented and analyzed the long history of IEA’s misleading and false projections on the renewable energy development. On November 14, the IEA presented its flagship report, the “World Energy Outlook 2017” (WEO). In a new analysis of the World Energy Outlook 2017 by the EWG, LUT together with Association for the Study of Peak Oil and Gas Germany have looked closely into the misleading projections of the IEA on solar energy and oil production. Solar Energy: Although the IEA revised its extremely pessimistic forecast on renewable energy, following a wave of international critique, is it consistently ignoring their exponential growth over the last years. Especially growth rates of solar PV are underestimated. The IEA estimated annual installations of PV from 2018 till 2030 constantly below 80 GW, even tough the past years have displayed consistent growth, showing that by 2017 annual installations of 100 GW are expected. Crude Oil: Regarding oil production, the IEA still propagates the projection that by 2040 oil consumption can surpass the peak value of 2015, which accounted 92,7 Mboe/d, by more than 100 Mboe/d. Taking a closer look at the results and facts in the WEO 2017 “new policy scenario”, one might be surprised that the euphoria, which the IEA has spread regarding the availability of crude oil, cannot not be found and verified in their own detailed analysis. -

Peak oil will have a costly inflationary effect on all aspects of our industrial society, including portable liquid fuels, agriculture (including planting, fertilizing, and harvesting), oil-dependent delivery of other energy sources, asphalt pavement, plastics, hydraulics and lubrication, and building materials. In 2006, the United States Department of Energy (DOE) defined “peak oil” as “the theory that the world’s oil production rate will reach a maximum and then decline.” In an accompanying report, the DOE quoted petroleum geologist Colin J. Campbell and petroleum engineer Jean H. Laherrere, who concluded that “[t]he world is not running out of oil--at least not yet. What our society does face, and soon, is the end of the abundant and cheap oil on which all industrial nations depend.”1 In 2007, the U.S. -
Allianz Energy Factsheets
Allianz SE | Group ESG Office Allianz Climate Solutions GmbH Energy Factsheets 2015 Executive Summary The energy sector is an important driver and engine of the world economy.
