1:00 pm - 2:30 pm
Please join the Center on Global Energy Policy for presentation and discussion on Statoil’s Energy Perspective 2016 Edition with Eirik Wærness, Senior Vice President and Chief Economist at Statoil. Energy Perspectives is published each year by Statoil. The 2016 report focuses on three scenarios: Reform which is based on the national climate targets of the Paris agreement (COP21), with further restrictive measures in the energy and climate policies over time. Renewal which outlines the most ambitious energy and climate goals. Rivalry which is impacted by geopolitical conflict and larger differences in the regional development, both with regard to economic development and transformation of the energy systems. Registration is required. This event is open to press. It will be livestreamed at energypolicy.columbia.edu/watch. A podcast of this event (in addition to other past Center events) will be available ~5 days after the date of the event.
