Abstract
VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland published a book entitled ‘Energy Visions 2050’ in June 2009. The book deals with the long-term (by 2050) development of the energy sector from a global perspective. It includes assessments of technology development and future technologies throughout the energy system, i.e. energy resources, energy conversion, transmission, distribution and end-use.
The book presents energy scenarios obtained from model calculations. The results provide indications of the structure of future energy systems, assuming the greenhouse gas emission reductions needed to tackle climate change are optimally implemented
