Decarbonizing the global energy system
Article Abstract:
The dynamics of technological change in the energy industry is analyzed based on historical evidence that suggests a decarbonization of the energy source. Indeed, calculations of specific carbon emissions per unit of primary energy support such claim. A continuing decline in emissions is also indicated at an annual rate of 0.3%. Decarbonization is influenced by technological innovations and consumer demands such as adaptability, practicality and cleanliness.
