The global energy situation in 2022 is under critical pressure and future predictions are saying that a large shift of energy mix is neededdbetter today than tomorrow. A main reason is the challenging predictions of a future climate crisis, which includes a global average temperature increase of more than 2!, or even higher due to the carbon emission from fossil fuelsdif nothing is done on the planet. A major need is to change the fossil fuelebased electricity production to become based on renewables (especially wind and solar), which directly gives a significant reduction in carbon emission, but there is also a need to transform the transportation sector to become electrifieddwhich also will give a very direct and clear reduction of the emission. The transportation sector is fully based on fossil fuel todaydbut electrifying itda large carbon emission reduction can be achieved. A third area is to save energy either by using less energy in our daily living or make the conversion processes much more efficient. One example seen in the past has been the classical bulbs, which today all are based on LEDs with an amazing energy reduction. The world will in the future need to be based on electricity instead of fossil fuel and my prediction is that electricity will cover above 60 % of all the global energy consumption achieved within the next 40 years to come.
