Recently, the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth held an energy seminar titled, “BRICS and the Global Energy Future.”
The panel featured Keith Allman, Director at Deutsche Bank and Ed Sappin, CEO at Sappin Global Strategies.
Access to affordable and reliable energy is a critical input to growing economies. In fact, almost 50 percent of the increase in energy demand over the next 25 years will be driven by just four developing countries: Brazil, Russia, India, and China.
These energy panelists asked the questions:
- Are the energy requirements of emerging countries a “mega problem” or a “mega opportunity”?
- How can we balance a crucial development tool with a climate threat?
