The impacts on countries and between countries of the many ongoing energy transitions is exceedingly difficult to predict. With support from the German government, we undertook a scenario exercise to help consider implications for decisionmakers out to 2100 in areas as disparate as critical minerals, energy poverty, and the changing landscape for oil and gas. We consider the implications on geopolitics through an international relations, security, environment, and technology lens.
