**The global pathway to net zero emissions by 2050 detailed in this report requires all governments to significantly strengthen and then successfully implement their energy and climate policies.** Commitments made to date fall far short of what is required by that pathway. **In this Summary for Policy Makers, we outline the essential conditions for the global energy sector to reach net zero CO****2** **emissions by 2050.** The pathway described in depth in this report achieves this objective with no offsets from outside the energy sector, and with low reliance on negative emissions technologies. **The path to net zero emissions is narrow: staying on it requires immediate and massive deployment of all available clean and efficient energy technologies.** In the net zero emissions pathway presented in this report, the world economy in 2030 is some 40% larger than today but uses 7% less energy. The transition to net zero brings substantial new opportunities for employment, with 14 million jobs created by 2030 in our pathway thanks to new activities and investment in clean energy.

# Making Clean Electrification Possible: 30 Years to Electrify the Global Economy. In its new report ***Making Clean Electrification Possible: 30 Years to Electrify the Global Economy***, the Energy Transitions Commission (ETC) states that massive clean electrification will be the primary route to decarbonisation, complemented by hydrogen in the harder-to-abate sectors. The rapidly falling costs of renewables and storage solutions make it possible to achieve the required massive expansion of clean power systems at low cost, according to the report. This report is part of the ETC’s wider ***Making Mission Possible Series*** – a series of reports outlining how to scale up clean energy provision within the next 30 years to meet the needs of a net-zero greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) economy by mid-century.

The value of EV and battery trade surges to $880 billion by 2035 up from $234 billion in 2024 under BNEF’s core Economic Transition Scenario, which assumes that clean-technology cost declines continue advancing at the pace they have in recent years and that no new major climate-related policies are adopted by governments. For its part, the EU’s energy-related trade deficit shrinks 29% by 2035, mainly owing lower crude oil imports and higher EV exports, though competition with China for global vehicle markets will be fierce.

This article synthesizes various 2024 studies on global energy supply until 2050, comparing different forecasting methodologies and scenario-based approaches. The findings underscore key trends in primary energy consumption, electricity generation, and the role of renewables, fossil fuels, and emerging technologies. Between 1985 and 2023, global primary energy consumption doubled, with fossil fuels, coal, oil, and natural gas, remaining the dominant energy sources. Despite growing investments in renewable energy, fossil fuels accounted for over 80% of global consumption in 2023, only slightly lower than in 1985. 1. **Forecasts:** These are probabilistic models that project future energy demand and supply based on current policies, economic trends, and technological advancements. * **Baseline growth:** Some forecasts anticipate continued growth in global energy consumption, driven by population increases and industrialization. By 2050, hydrogen could account for 5-15% of global energy consumption. The trajectory of global energy supply will be shaped by complex interdependencies between policy choices, technological breakthroughs, and economic trends. #### What is Re-Twin Energy’s platform?
