About this report

The IEA's flagship World Energy Outlook, published every year, is the most authoritative global source of energy analysis and projections. It identifies and explores the biggest trends in energy demand and supply, as well as what they mean for energy security, emissions and economic development.

This year’s Outlook comes against a backdrop of escalating risks in the Middle East and heightened geopolitical tensions globally, and explores a range of energy security issues that decision makers face as they proceed with clean energy transitions. With rising investment of clean technologies and rapid growth in electricity demand, the WEO 2024 examines how far the world has come on its journey towards a safer and more sustainable energy system, and what more needs to be done to reach its climate goals.

Reflecting today’s uncertainties, our three main scenarios are complemented with sensitivity cases for renewables, electric mobility, liquefied natural gas and how heatwaves, efficiency policies and the rise of artificial intelligence might affect the outlook for electricity.

Tips for getting the most out of IEA WEO GPT

  • Understand the limitations: This chatbot has been trained exclusively on the content of the IEA's World energy Outlook 2024 to make it easier to explore and understand the analysis it contains. While we strive to provide accurate and helpful information, AI-generated content may contain errors or inaccuracies. Users are encouraged to verify the information independently and use it at their own discretion. For detailed or official interpretations, please refer to the full report or consult the authors directly.
  • Be clear and specific: Provide detailed and specific instructions to get the most accurate and relevant responses. For example, instead of asking "Tell me about energy trends," try "Summarize the key findings on renewable energy from the World Energy Outlook 2024."
  • Ask one question at a time: To ensure clarity and focus, ask one question at a time. This helps the agent provide a more precise and helpful response.
  • Provide context: If your question relates to a specific section or chapter of the World Energy Outlook 2024, mention it in your prompt. For example, "Explain the projections for global oil demand in Chapter 3 of the World Energy Outlook 2024."
  • Specify desired format: If you need the response in a particular format, such as a list, table, or summary, mention it in your prompt. For example, "List the key points from the executive summary of the World Energy Outlook 2024."
  • Clarify scenario and region: When asking for data, be specific about the scenario and region you are interested in. For example, "Provide data on electricity generation from renewables in the Stated Policies Scenario for Europe."
  • Use natural language: Feel free to ask questions or make requests in a conversational manner. The agent is designed to understand and respond to natural language inputs.
  • Be patient: Complex queries may take a moment to process. Please be patient while the agent generates a response.
