Energy and sustainable development : impact of the oil shocks

The lesson is divided into three sections:In the first point the world oil demand and supply is considered. The second one analyses the oil price trends and volatility. The third point refers to the EU energy policies. Finally, the slides will discuss about the possible policy interventions on demand and supply side. In this course on “Energy and Sustainable Development”, organised by UNESCO and ENEA, the subject of the lesson is the Impact of oil shocks. The main goal is to consider the questions concerning the problems related to oil in the future. The first question concerns the reliability of oil forecasts: are they more reliable than the haruspex’s prophecies?The second one more precisely refers to the reliability of oil data. As to the infrastructures, is there a problem of lack of refining or of production capacity (or both)?The most important prophecy is: will be oil production able to meet the demand of new economies at a low price? And finally, is the peak-oil theory real or we are in a temporary trouble?
