Putting fossil fuel demand in doubt, with Molly Walton

What does the future look like for fossil fuel demand?

OPEC and large oil and gas companies are bullish, but the rapid rollout of clean tech is undermining many of their claims.

Our guest this week is Molly Walton, who worked on the World Energy Outlook at the International Energy Agency and is now Director for Energy at the We Mean Business Coalition.

She joins Sulaiman Ilyas-Jarrett, a former senior government advisor and current Policy Fellow at the University of Cambridge, to discuss the range of energy scenarios out there and why much of future oil and gas demand is in doubt.

The two discuss the rise of electrification, the new energy economics of the developing world, and why energy security looks different in low fossil fuel world. They also touch on the recent geopolitics of energy, from China to Venezuela and Iran.
