In the 2021 World Energy Outlook (WEO) report, the International Energy Agency (IEA) gave a rather disheartening prediction: The world can only reduce carbon emissions by 40% by 2050 going by the current national pledges. As the ravages of the global pandemic subside, the world must devise ways to accelerate the energy transition. According to the 1.5°C decarburization pathway released recently, at least USD 5 trillion annually in investments is needed to fulfill the Paris Agreement goals.
So the big question is: How can energy technologies contribute to this urgent need? Read on to learn about the impact of technology in this era.

What looks good in paper will need to be executed swiftly and efficiently with little room for errors. The winning energy firms can execute the projects with the required finesse, but only if they recognize the obstacles and manage their energy portfolios leveraging modern tools.
