Supplementary notes

* According to the source, the conservative scenario "describes the prospects for world energy in the framework of current technological and regulatory trends. There are no technological revolutions."

The innovative scenario "is based on the premise of accelerated development of new technologies and their transfer from the developed to the developing countries at a rate twice as fast as now." It "assumes strengthening of the already adopted national priorities in promoting renewable energy sources, supporting electric transport and boosting energy efficiency."

The energy transition scenario "envisions that in addition to rapid development of new technologies and their falling costs, there will also be extensive governmental support in the form of direct financial subsidies, standards for producers, ambitious targets, etc." It "projects that priority will always be given to zero or low-carbon technologies."
