18th Monday January 2010 is the rumble of a 4 day summit focus on energy in Abu Dhabi. This is the 3rd world future Energy Summit that is going to be held and it is increasingly attracting attention from around the world.

There will be experts in various fields, policy makers, industry specialists, researchers, pragmatic leaders, scientists and leaders from around the world. It is expected that more than a hundred countries will be present to tackle the energy targets while equally addressing climate threats.

Governments around the world will send their representative ministers. It is expected that key players from Europe, Asia, Africa, Middle East and North America will be present. The discussion will address the rising concern of balancing demands for energy. This balance scorecard is to be based on social, economic and environmental factors that our earth is faced-with.

For the sake of sustainability, global dialogue is becoming the norm to collaborative action. Analyzing the discussions taking ground, nowadays, the future seems to be seeing a better humane quality. Yet, the predictions for the future are rather threatening than promising The International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts that the increase demand for energy will be accounted mainly by the developing countries. They will represent 70% while the developed nation will only account for 30% of the augmented demand to 2030. As developing countries get richer their demand for energy will rise together with their increasing population growth.

Yet, based on historical backgrounds the developed countries are definitely more accountable for already made damage from CO2 emissions. In addition, the emission per capita in the developing countries is far less than the developed countries. These counter-offensive facts abate IEA prognosis, based on the fact that the growth rate of emissions are far higher in developing countries than in developed ones. Yet, this overlooks real total demand for energy. This is still an ongoing debate that has to be tackled wisely.

Going to a holistic viewpoint, it is a fact that global energy demand will surge astronomically in the 20 years to come. It is suggested that an increase of 44 percent of global demand for energy will be mainly represented by Russia and China, based on early findings, 2009, from the Energy Information Administration, being one of U.S government’s top icons in forecasting energy demands.

The most perilous rise will be a direct consequence of hasty transition to better standards of livings. Yet, a socially good outcome but with shortcomings that may affect future generations. World Future Energy Summit will be trying to establish a pathway to sustainable development in energy generation for the world.
