About Time

The long-term viability of world economies is heavily dependent on the availability of electricity and a sustainable environment. Today’s global energy model relies greatly on hydrocarbons which scientists believe is a major cause of climate change. This energy model is not sustainable. Recent years have seen the risks of fossil resource depletion: recurrent geopolitical tensions, increasing energy dependence and volatile prices.

The purpose of this section is to illustrate how the critical issues of rising energy demand, volatility of fossil fuel prices, climate change and security of supply are pointing towards a global transition away from a hydrocarbon world to a more sustainable one.
