2. A New Energy Future
By 2050 global CO2 emissions must fall by at least 50%, yet
energy demand is predicted to double.
Securing new sources of energy and squeezing more from
existing resources are vital to meet soaring long-term
demand.
More efficient energy use can help save resources and cut
greenhouse gases.
Satisfying the world’s demand for energy will take multiple
resources - from fossil fuels to renewables - developed into
smarter products in tandem with improved use within a more
efficient infrastructure.

3. Transport Energy Demand Will Increase Rapidly
Global population is growing and demand for mobility is increasing
Number of road vehicles is expected to double to more than two billion by 2050
Energy-related CO2 emissions – approx 62% of the global total
Transport accounts for about 23% of energy-related CO2 emissions - road
transport accounts for 17%
Energy Related CO2 Emissions* Estimate of worldwide vehicle demand
Industry & Manufacturing: 76.5%
Power Generation
Buildings & Commerce
Road Transport: 17% Commercial
Heavy Duty and Passenger Light
Duty Vehicles
Other Transport: 6.5%

6. Summary
Transport is a significant contributor to GHG emissions globally
Major growth in demand for mobility is expected
Significant improvements will occur in ICE vehicle efficiency from the
application of existing and emerging drivetrain technology
Conventional biofuels will make a significant and growing contribution to
decarbonisation of ICE fuels
Advanced biofuels from novel feedstocks offer further long term potential for
CO2 reduction
Increased diversity of fuel and drivetrain types is expected (electric, gas,
hydrogen….)
Energy efficient lubricants will improve vehicle efficiency
Interventions to reduce overall demand will be required
Collaboration is needed to deliver smarter and more sustainable mobility
