Eni hosted the presentation of the World Energy Outlook 2021 (WEO), the annual International Energy Agency (IEA) report, which provides data and insights on future scenarios for the energy sector and offers a complete picture of the transition process towards clean energy.

Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA), presented the report. Claudio Descalzi, CEO of Eni, Luigi Di Maio, Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Roberto Cingolani, Minister for Ecological Transition, and Paolo Gentiloni, European Commissioner for Economy, discussed the issue, moderated by Alessandra Migliaccio from Bloomberg.

 The WEO presentation was an opportunity for discussion and debate on the new emerging global energy economy and on Italy's commitments to achieve the global climate and economic development goals set for 2050.

World Energy Outlook 2021

An indispensable guide at this crucial time for the energy transition.

Highlights of this year's publication

This year's World Energy Outlook was published a month earlier than usual, on 13 October, because it was designed as a guide for decision-makers ahead of COP26 in Glasgow, the United Nations Conference of the Parties, which ended on 12 November. The International Energy Agency report provides a vital opportunity for governments to accelerate their action against climate change. The WEO describes the key decision-making matters that can influence the future of the energy sector, analysing supply and demand trends, and outlines possible scenarios for an energy transition that is safe, affordable and fair for all citizens

The scenarios analysed by WEO 2021:

  • Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario (NZE), which outlines the pathway to achieving the ambitious target of net zero CO2 emissions by 2050: a roadmap for the global energy sector
  • Announced Pledges Scenario (APS), which is based on the fulfilment of commitments made by governments around the world to combat climate change
  • Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS) which, starting from a sectoral assessment of government policies around the world, reflects their approaches.
