Climate Change is a natural phenomenon which is accelerated by mankind. GHG emissions from Energy & Transport sectors are increasing.
As the world becomes more densely populated and its people richer, demand for energy grows.
As energy demand grows, our challenge is to achieve a sustainable balance between supply and demand whilst meeting GHG reduction goals.
Increased purchasing power leads to increased demands for personal mobility and this has a direct impact on energy demands, transport and the environment.
