INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY (IEA)
The International Energy Agency, based in Paris, is an autonomous agency linked with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Each year the Economic Analysis Division publishes the World Energy Outlook (WEO), which provides detailed global energy projections covering supply and demand by fuel and sector to 2030. The WEO outlines two scenarios reflecting different policy environments. The Reference Scenario describes our energy future under current energy policies and practices. The World Alternative Policy Scenario analyses over 1400 energy policies currently under consideration to show an alternative energy future. The consequences of these two scenarios, e.g. energy security, CO2 emissions, investment requirements, trade are analyzed in a forward-looking manner and policy implications are highlighted. The World Energy Model is based on the IEA's extensive historical database and covers 21 separate countries and regions and the world as a whole.
