Welcome

Energy 2050 is an international symposium organized by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm 19-20 October 2009. The symposium is being held in association with the Swedish EU presidency in autumn 2009.

The symposium is focused on key issues emanating from the Academy's in-depth energy studies during 2005-2009. The goal is to provide a message for the December 2009 Copenhagen meeting at which a post-Kyoto action plan will be discussed.

The message for the Copenhagen meeting has now been finalized and can be downloaded here.

Presentations from the conference are being uploaded continuously, under Presentations in the menu on the left side of this page. Video-on-demand from the conference will also be available shortly.
