I will not hide my excitement between the lines and encourage you to read the third edition of our flagship project which is aimed to provide broader understanding of the BRICS energy sectors' pathways for the future. It is obvious that long-term sectoral planning cannot be compre- hensive if its developers neglect the standpoint of younger generation of professionals, research fellows and students. We, as BRICS Youth, make a significant contribution to our countries' energy cooperation by sharing today our vision for the future that should help the present leaders make decisions in line with the decisions to come. The BRICS Youth Energy Outlook 2020 is one of vivid examples that the BRICS Youth stays committed to the decision they made 5 years ago - to cooperate on energy matters and drive this area of BRICS youth cooper- ation forward. We will stay open to all relevant stakeholders and develop this format of collaborative annual study to meet the highest standards. As I mentioned, the Outlook 2020 is presented within' the year of the 5th Anniversary of the BRICS Youth Energy Agency. I would like to thank everyone who has been committed to this project throughout the years as you are the reason why the Outlook 2020 is one of the very few interna- tional energy studies
