The IEA expects global oil demand to peak at around 102 mn barrels per day (bbl \/ d) in the late 2020s, before dropping to 97 mn bbl \/ d by 2050 if governments maintain their current energy policies. The agency sees that figure dropping to 93 mn bbl \/ d in 2030 if governments commit to their national energy and climate targets and to 77 mn bbl \/ d if they carry out further policy changes to reach net zero by 2050. \u201cThe transition to clean energy is happening worldwide and it\u2019s unstoppable. It\u2019s not a question of if, it\u2019s just a matter of how soon,\u201d IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iea.org\/news\/the-energy-world-is-set-to-change-significantly-by-2030-based-on-today-s-policy-settings-alone\">statement<\/a> accompanying the report.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This may be too optimistic of an outlook: <\/strong>The IEA\u2019s optimistic outlook comes shortly after OPEC published its 2023 <a href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2023\/10\/1209.pdf\">World Oil Outlook (pdf)<\/a>, where it upped its long-term oil demand outlook to 116 mn bbl \/ d by 2045, a 5% jump from its 2022 forecast. The figure has \u201cpotential to be even higher,\u201d the alliance of oil producers said. Chevron CEO Mike Wirth told the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/1902a8ef-7078-47e2-8a62-b6f0050ed569\">Financial Times<\/a> that the IEA\u2019s forecast is not even \u201cremotely right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The oil sector didn\u2019t get the memo: <\/strong>Oil companies are racing to secure large-scale mergers and acquisitions as they rush to add more reserves to their portfolios and capitalize on surging oil demand, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/42751474-ea28-4bc2-838b-50d564b93189\">Financial Times<\/a> writes.

Germany hopes to cover 10% of its green hydrogen demands from Algerian exports, in a setup similar to the H2Med pipeline project \u2014 a subsea hydrogen pipeline project that is being jointly developed by France, Spain, and Portugal by 2030. Germany also plans to modernize and expand the gas pipelines through Tunisia, Italy, and Austria so that it is able to trade and import green hydrogen to southern Germany.
