"Energy Transformation" was the dominant idea at the meeting. The meeting predicted that by 2060, the proportion of fossil energy will reach over 60% , still playing an important role, but under the pressure of climate change, the energy consumption structure will further shift to clean. Experts at the meeting believe that the world's oil and gas resources are not scarce, once thought that the oil supply "peak" has become an outdated topic, should now focus on the issue of slowing per capita energy consumption. According to OPEC forecasts, global oil demand will continue to grow, reaching one hundred million barrels a day by 2030, and will not peak, Barkin said. In his speech, Putin argued that the demand for conventional energy does not depend solely on the availability and electrification of cars in large countries and economies such as China and India, it also relies on oil and gas products to continue to enter all areas of human life and industrial fields. Although the share of oil in transportation energy consumption may decrease from 92% in 2014 to 60% in 2060, natural gas is still in its golden age. Despite the rapid growth of renewable energy, the share of renewable energy in total energy is unlikely to exceed 15% by 2035, and fossil fuels will remain important in the energy mix in the future, according to Dudley. Under the pressure of climate change, natural gas will become an alternative to coal, meeting energy needs and reducing carbon emissions. We used to talk about the age of big oil, but now it's the age of the atmosphere. Compared with previous years, coal was left out in the cold at the energy conference. Industry representatives from China, India, Germany, Japan and other countries no longer emphasize the basic functions of coal-fired power plants, but have begun to exchange ideas on how to technically realize the flexible operation of coal-fired power plants, to tie in with more renewable power generation access. The meeting predicted that global energy demand would grow by no more than 20% ove
