An In-Depth Study of Trends, Challenges, and Innovations in Energy Consumption
Abstract
Detailed assessments of trends and challenges, their potential solutions, and future opportunities for innovation are presented within the context of the global and regional energy issues that are driving the 21st-century energy system. In a work as broad as this, with fossil fuels maintaining a constant share of 80%, global energy consumption was expected to amount to 620 exajoules in 2023. In this study, we analyze energy consumption by residential (20%), industrial (30%), transportation (25%), and agriculture (5%) sectors. The report reveals stark disparities in energy access, with 600 million people in sub-Saharan Africa still without power, while renewables have climbed to 15% of global output. Advanced technologies such as smart energy systems, AI-based management and energy storage technologies can contribute to 5-12% efficiency improvement and 30% outage reduction.
