1. April 19, 2004 International Energy Outlook 2004 Guy Caruso Administrator Energy Information Administration Thirty-First Annual International Energy Conference Boulder, Colorado

2. International Energy Outlook 2004 indicates that over the next 24 years … Energy use will grow strongly, especially among the developing countries (2.7% per year in the developing world) There will be continued reliance on fossil fuels through 2025; oil remains the dominant fuel type (39 % of total world energy use) Natural gas is the fastest growing source of primary energy (2.2% per year) Coal will continue to be the predominant source for electricity generation, but natural gas will be an important supply source for power generation in many parts of the world, given its efficiency and environmental benefits. Carbon dioxide emissions resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels will continue to grow (1.9% per year)

24. International Energy Outlook 2004 indicates that over the next 24 years … Energy use will grow fastest in the developing world Oil remains the dominant fuel type Natural gas will be the fastest-growing primary energy source Resources will be sufficient to meet demand through 2025 Carbon dioxide emissions will continue to grow Electricity will increase rapidly in the developing world Coal will remain the predominant fuel for electric power generation, but gas’ importance will grow Developing Asia will expand its use of nuclear power
