World Energy Outlook 2023

Against a backdrop of geopolitical tensions and fragile energy markets, the 2023 World Energy Outlook explores how structural changes in economies and in energy use are shifting the way that the world meets rising demand for energy.

This year's Outlook, which marks 50 years since the International Energy Agency was founded, assesses the evolving nature of energy security. It examines the implications of today's energy trends in key areas including investment, trade flows, electrification and energy access.

It also describes an energy system in 2030 in which clean technologies play a significantly greater role than today. However, even stronger measures would still be needed to keep alive the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C.
