The CTCN's strategic partner, DNV GL, has created a global outlook of the future energy system. At a time of uncertainty for energy stakeholders, the Energy Transition Outlook provides a forecast of our energy future through to 2050, from an organization with an equal footing in fossil and renewable energy.
DNV GL Group President & CEO Remi Eriksen says, "Profound changes in the energy mix await us, and more than 70% of our business is related to energy in one or other form. That is why we have launched a project to model the energy transition, and to produce impactful, world-class reports on the nature, timing and industry implications of the transition. An independent, expert view – no wishful thinking – on the energy transition is a critical exercise both for ourselves and our customers."
