Critical uncertainties that bring forth these scenarios

• Supply - Will there be a major supply crisis or will the world transform its useage of energy sources without a major crisis? Included in this uncertainty is the question whether in the case of a supply crisis the world will switch to dominantly nuclear or renewable energy sources.
• Power - Will Supply shortage lead to global power shifts or the emergence of new powers?
• Environment - Will environmental issues enforce substitution of oil by other sources of energy?
• Demand - Will demand for energy develop towards substitution or a mix of energy sources?
