Energy Sector in Transition-March 27-Boao Forum for Asia

Session15

Energy Sector in Transition

Location: Yiyong Ballroom, Level 1, Dongyu Island Hotel
Time: 14:00-15:15
Description:

-Smoothing out commodity cycles, particularly the Oil cycle, has been the dream of economists and industry stakeholders. Oil, as the “blood” of national economy, will hurt the sound, stable and long-term growth of both producers and consumers if prices fluctuate dramatically. Exorbitant prices bring short-term windfalls for producers, but sow the seeds of plummeting. And vice versa.

-What kind of global energy governance can help smooth such market- driven vicious cycle in production and investment?

-To what extent will unconventional energies such as shale oil/gas increase the resilience of energy supply and hence help smooth the oil cycle?

-To what extent will renewable energies such as wind and solar reduce our reliance on oil?
