Energy use and economic development are inseparable. Where there is energy poverty, there is poverty. And where energy availability rises, living standards rise as well.

The Global Outlook is ExxonMobil’s latest view of energy demand and supply through 2050. It forms the basis for our business planning and is underpinned by a deep understanding of long-term market fundamentals.

2B more people and a global economy 2X the size
The world’s future energy needs will be determined by the number of people there are and the level of economic growth they enjoy. On both counts, the numbers are staggering.

We begin creating the Outlook by looking at fundamental drivers including population, living standards, and consumer preferences.

Then we forecast energy demand across 15 sectors and match the demand for energy services with about 20 types of energy, considering how technology, government policies, and other factors may evolve. We forecast oil and natural gas production from key producing countries/regions, and to estimate energy-related CO2 emissions, we look at historical and projected energy demand and apply an emissions factor for each type.
