Moving from principles to action for energy supply that mitigates against climate change requires a long-term perspective. Energy infrastructure takes time to build up; new energy technologies take time to develop. Policy shifts often also need many years to take effect. In most world regions the transformation from fossil to renewable energies will require additional investment and higher supply costs over about twenty years

primary energy consumption

Taking into account the assumptions discussed above, the resulting primary energy consumption under the Energy [R]evolution scenario is shown in Figure 6.85. Compared to the Reference scenario, overall energy demand in the Energy [R]evolution scenario will be reduced by 38% in 2050. Around 51% of the remaining demand will be covered by renewable energy sources. Under the advanced Energy [R]evolution scenario a share of around 73% of the remaining energy demand will be covered by renewable sources.
